"You like to play dirty, don't you?" he says looking like the devil himself. ❀ *Magic is a death sentence. Love could be worse.* In the kingdom of Calithe, the Enchanted are hunted without mercy. Azra Nightraven has spent her life in the shadows, hiding her gift-or risk execution. When the rebellion forces her into the heart of danger, she has one impossible mission: spy on the king and uncover a way to end his tyrant's reign. Prince Ren Calloway is everything she should hate-arrogant, untouchable, loyal to the crown. But beneath his carefully crafted mask lies a storm of conflicted beliefs and dangerous secrets. The closer Azra gets, the harder it becomes to decide whether Ren is her enemy, her ally... or something far more perilous. Every step she takes draws her deeper into a deadly game of power and betrayal, where trust is a weapon and love is a risk she cannot afford. The crown is drenched in blood. To save her people, Azra may have to lose her heart- or be marked by the king forever.
