Five years ago, Laena abandoned her crown. Now she lives in exile, tending her garden and hiding a deadly secret: she possesses magic in a realm where its forbidden. And shes not the only one.
When shadow monsters attack and assassins strike, theres only one person who can help her: Captain Callum Farrow, the infamous magic hunter of Aglye.
Hes sworn to destroy anyone who wields magic. Shes sworn never to reveal her power.
One touch is all it takes to ignite something dangerous between them. One kiss to make her forget why she cant fall for him.
But as shadow monsters emerge and assassins strike, their forbidden attraction becomes the least of their problems.
Ancient magic stirs in the realm. Enemies gather at the borders. And Laena must choose between the man she loves and the kingdoms shes sworn to protect.
