Synopsis

Lyra Bien wants only a quiet life, far from King Damir’s war and his hunger for magic. But when Roark Ashwood, the king’s silent and dangerously handsome soldier, invades her village, her secret is exposed.

She is a melder. Gifted in bone, blood, and soul. Feared. Desired. Doomed.

Claimed for the king, Lyra becomes a captive in Roark’s care. But escape is impossible when her jailor might be her only hope of freedom.

Bound by secrets, drawn together by fire, they must decide: restore a kingdom built on lies, or burn it to the ground.
