A prophecy at stake. Her heart torn between two men. Can Cahra unleash the untapped strength – and magicks – within her?

When Cahra, a young blacksmith, is commissioned to forge a sword but with no family emblem assigned, she uses her imagination to design a pattern - a pattern which invokes the start of an age-old prophecy and awakens Hael – an immortal with the power to shape or shatter worlds and who is sealed away in a room deep in Hael’stromia, the lost capital at the heart of the civil war between three Kingdoms.

Cahra must flee her Kingdom along with the very stranger who commissioned the sword. But what does she really know about the handsome and charming noble, Terryl?

As the prophecy unfolds, Cahra is draws ever closer to Hael, who visits and beguils her in her dreams. With tyrant kings vying to capture Hael and use him as a weapon, can Cahra free him in time to save the empire?

A sizzling, action-packed romantasy, perfect for fans of The North Wind, Throne of Glass and The Book of Azriel.

A prophecy at stake. Her heart torn between two men – one mortal, one a deathless god. Can Cahra unleash the untapped strength – and magicks – within her to save her kingdom?
