Their love is forbidden. But some prices are worth paying.
By the Season’s end, Virelle Celastra must secure a match to save her family from financial ruin. She has a plan. She has a target. What she does not have room for is Shadow spy Caelen Thornevail.
He’s wrong in every way that truly matters to the Gilt. No title. No fortune. No business looking at her as if she’s the only light in his life. Yet, the mysterious mark now burning beneath her stays draws her to him like true North. But surrendering to the temptation would mean her family’s doom.
Caelen knows Virelle is all but forbidden for him. They come from different worlds entirely. He is a soldier, a Shadow spy at that, and Gilt debutantes don’t marry soldiers. But if Caelen knows how to do one thing, it’s to fight, and he’s prepared to do just that for Virelle. Except his Commander ordered him to hide the mark that pulls him toward Virelle, and disobeying him could cost both of their lives.
As the Season turns increasingly deadly, duty pulls Caelen and Virelle in opposite directions. Virelle knows what happens to girls who choose their hearts over their obligations—she watched it destroy her sister. Caelen knows his place is with the Shadows. With rebellion brewing, keeping Virelle safe means walking away. The sensible thing would be to let each other go.
Unfortunate that neither of them has ever been able to manage sensible.
