In the new world of Soulstice, a reluctant hero becomes the secret savior of the poor. Infamously known as the Soul Sweeper, 28 year old Freya Eeli is thrust into a world of danger and adventure as she explores her mysterious abilities and harbors the burden of being able to both take and save lives.

Gifted or cursed, she sweeps the souls of the corrupt and wicked, branded as "Soulless", to give to the poor masses, known as "Soulfuls", afflicted with a crippling disease that renders humans lifeless. 

As secrets and forgotten memories begin to unfold, Freya must remain undaunted from achieving her most important hunt yet: To steal the soul of a notorious Soulless to save her beloved. She confronts the demons of her own soul and discovers a deadly past that could either threaten her very existence or prove to be the very salvation she always craved for.

🥀Heat licks up my bones and into the surrounding skin, my groan of pleasure joining Damaris's low growl of desire. However, his lips stay as gentle as his grip on my waist, allowing me to choose how far this will go. My throat rumbles as I purr from his hand slowly trailing up my arm to the side of my neck. My head clouds from the tingling sensation sparking along my flesh, a moment rich like the heady scent of roses and abruptly dashed by the sound of running feet.🌹 (🥉Third Place Best Male Protagonist Award, The Booker Awards) 🐺A fantasy world filled with magic and adventure 🗡 📜The secondary language is Latin🗝 The four walls of the twisting tower was her sanctuary.

In a world where souls can be stolen but never replaced, love and deception become a deadly game. *** Elowyn Emberveil died at eighteen, consumed by flames that devoured her home in Grandcrest. But death wasn't the end. Rescued by the enigmatic Chooser, her soul was exiled to the Island of the Spared Souls-a purgatory for those not bound for eternal torment. Survival meant stealing: devouring human souls to inhabit their bodies. For 173 years, Elowyn has endured, her spirit trapped in the decaying body of a 90-year-old woman. When a young, radiant girl arrives on the island, Elowyn sees her salvation. Consumed by desperation, she claims the girl's soul, unknowingly seizing the body of Princess Isabel Morrow, second in line to the kingdom of Ivor. Returning to the royal city with Isabel's devoted knight-and former lover-Raven Sinclair, Elowyn finds herself entangled in a life she never wanted and emotions she's never known. As Raven's unwavering love for Isabel tugs at her fractured soul, Elowyn begins to wonder: can a thief of souls deserve redemption? But secrets can't stay buried forever. As Elowyn struggles to maintain her facade, the truth of Isabel's fate looms. What will Raven do when he learns the woman he loves is gone-and the soul he now holds close is a stranger? And what will Elowyn sacrifice to hold onto a love that was never hers to begin with?
