As their bond deepens amidst chaos and war, love becomes their most dangerous weapon—one that could mend the fabric of time… or tear the world apart.

The Empress rules with holy fire and iron will, casting down cities that refuse her light, branding all who resist as heretics and rebels. But across the shattered lands of the Free Marches, a spark of defiance refuses to die. Kaelen Virelth, the exiled son of a disgraced noble house, is thrust into leadership after his brother is assassinated.

Trust comes slowly. Desire comes faster. And in a world built on deception, the most dangerous thing either of them can do… is feel.
