In a nation where magic is outlawed and the Golden Pantheon demands absolute worship, Ivy Fellows is a defiant outlier. Born into a ruling family but fueled by a deep-seated hatred for the gods, she spends her days opposing their regime. When the King dies without an heir, Ivy is thrust into a dangerous political race to prevent a tyrant from seizing the throne. To reach the capital, she must undertake a perilous cross-country journey alongside the battle-hardened Captain Callan Murphy—a man whose reputation is as formidable as his presence. What begins as a reluctant, tension-filled alliance quickly shifts into a complex game of secrets. As Ivy pushes the guarded Captain to reveal his true colors, she uncovers hints of hidden magic that mirror her own forbidden powers. Caught in a web of prophecy, rebellion, and destiny, the two find themselves drawn together by a sizzling, slow-burn attraction that defies their warring loyalties. Featuring the high-stakes intensity of *Throne of Glass* and *The Serpent and the Wings of Night*, this gripping romantasy follows Ivy as she navigates a world built on lies. To save her future, she must master her burgeoning magic, confront the truth about the gods, and decide if she is willing to kill a deity—and risk her heart—to change the world.
