Fallon has survived by following one rule: never let anyone touch her, because wielding the forbidden power of death is an execution sentence.
When Fallon catches the attention of the king, she’s invited to the Serpent Academy, where dragon riders and ruthless legacies compete for a throne. Her assignment is simple: determine which of the king’s two chosen heirs is worthy of the crown, and make sure the wrong one never claims it.
One of those heirs is Andri Blanche, the son of one of the most feared ice wielders on the Continent. He’s also the only person who can survive her touch.
With tensions at the Academy growing more violent by the day, Andri offers Fallon a dangerous bargain: pretend to court him before the rivalry turns deadly. But the closer Fallon gets to the arrogant and dangerously charming heir, the harder it becomes to remember their relationship was never supposed to be real.
Meanwhile, beyond the academy walls, strange beasts are slipping through the borders, rulers are vanishing, and cloaked figures known as the Forgotten are rising from the wilds. And the magic tied to Fallon’s past may be powerful enough to destroy the entire Continent.
Because if anyone discovers what Fallon truly is, she won’t just lose the ice wielder she’s falling for, she’ll be condemned beside the kingdom already hunting her.
