Some bargains are sealed with blood. Others with fire.
The deadliest are sealed with a kiss...
From the internationally bestselling author of The Legends of Thezmarr
series comes an epic romantasy trilogy about a gifted bookbinder and a
cursed immortal general bound together by a dangerous magical bargain.
Saige Grayson has always believed stories could heal—even when her own
body refuses to. As the most promising bookbinder in the capital, she’s
learned to work through chronic pain and crushing debt, restoring other
people’s treasures while trying not to fall apart herself. But when the man she
owes decides her rare talent is worth more than her payments, Saige is traded
to the Azkari—an immortal race forged by the gods for war—and imprisoned
in their ancient stronghold.
Her only chance of survival lies with Archer, a fallen Azkari general
imprisoned beside her—cursed, dangerous, and impossible to ignore. He
offers her a way out, and in return, Saige must help him retrieve and restore
an ancient book. But the book is made of living magic, powerful enough to
stop a great evil—or unleash it. And as Saige works with Archer, the tome
begins to awaken something dark and dangerous—both in the realm and
within her.
As their enemies close in and buried memories resurface, Saige and Archer
must decide what they’re willing to sacrifice: their freedom, their fragile
trust…or the spark that could ignite the world.
