Bloodbound and penniless. Exiled to cursed lands. Hunted by death.
When thief Suri suffers a humiliating robbery, she has just one day to settle a dangerous debt. Her plan: abduct and impersonate a foreign princess at the royal ball. But when the wickedly handsome fae lord of the wasteland, Kol, crashes the party to find the princess she's pretending to be, everything takes a darker turn.
With her knife in Kol’s righthand man, stolen trinkets in her pockets, and the kidnapped princess now missing, Suri can’t outrun the law. The King exiles her with one condition: assassinate Kol, and all is forgiven. But Kol has sworn his own brutal revenge - if his wastelands don't kill her first.
In this high-stakes fantasy debut, prepare for unexpected twists and a slow-burn romance. Fans of ´The Bridge Kingdom´ by Danielle L. Jensen and ´The City of Brass´ by S.A. Chakraborty will love this new series.
Rachel A Sandpiper (she/her) is a twenty-something fantasy author living in London. She's passionate about creating strong and complex characters in unkind and twisting worlds, but despite what she puts them through, there will always be a heart-pounding romance.
