Meet Lyra Bloom-a sharp-tongued redhead with a quick mind and a volatile vein of magic she can't quite control.

Raised scraping by in the lawless Outerlands, survival meant learning to fight, lie, and rely on no one but herself until one fatal mistake changes everything.

Captured crossing the border into the Inner Lands, Lyra is dragged into the very world she's spent her life resenting-and forced into service under the power she swore she'd never bow to.

Inside the walls of the Citadel, her magic grows stronger. Wilder. But so does something else: a rising lust and desire for something she doesn't truly understand. Something shadowed. Something dangerous. Something that threatens to unravel her-and everything around her.

And as whispers of rebellion spread and dragons strike from exile, Lyra must decide whether she'll be forged into the weapon the Citadel wants... or become the spark that burns it all down.

EXPECT:

�� Slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers tension

�� Morally grey MMC

��️ Forced proximity & dangerous bargains

�� Dragons in exile & forbidden magic

❤️ A fierce, flawed heroine who would rather set the world on fire than bow to it

This is Book One in a three-book fantasy saga.
