Publisher's Synopsis
"Once there was a prince so sly,
Cast away, but didn't die..."
Powers Awaken.
Clara led a quiet life as a silk merchant in a peaceful artisan village-until the day a forbidden magic wielder was executed before her eyes. A Finder's all-knowing gaze had lingered on her, and everything changed. In that moment, something ancient stirred within Clara-something long-buried and dangerously powerful.
Desires Burn.
Determined to master blade and steel, Clara flees to Kireth's frost-bitten training grounds. Brutal drills and buried secrets test her resolve, but nothing unsettles her more than her commanding officer, Sergeant Cyrus Varek-unreadable, unyielding, and impossible to ignore. Sparks fly, boundaries blur, and a slow-burn attraction blazes into perilous territory.
Truths Unravel.
As forgotten memories surface and hidden loyalties come to light, Clara is thrust into a race against prophecy itself. Allies shift, foes close in, and the line between duty and desire grows razor-thin. To protect the people she loves, Clara must wield the power awakening in her blood-no matter the cost.
