Oralia Solis lives a life of forced isolation, cursed by a daemoni bite that causes anyone she touches to crumble to ash. Sequested away by her adoptive father, King Typhon of Aethera, she has spent centuries fearing her own lethal power. When a catastrophic incident forces her to flee, she finds an unlikely savior in King Renwick of Infernis, the ruler of the land of the dead. Renwick recognizes her potential as a weapon, but as he keeps her prisoner, he discovers that the princess is far more than her dangerous gift. This gripping fantasy debut features a delicious enemies-to-lovers slow burn, reimagining classic mythology with a fresh, dark edge. While Renwick and Oralia are divided by the looming threat of war between their rival kingdoms, they are bound by an undeniable, magnetic pull; Renwick is the only person capable of surviving—and craving—Oralia’s deadly touch. As Oralia unravels the secrets of her true parentage and struggles to master her volatile magic, she faces a harrowing choice. With the fate of two realms hanging in the balance, she must decide who to trust and determine if she is willing to sacrifice everything for love or seize the power to change her destiny.
