They say the gods only come for the marked.
Elia's never believed that.
Not until her sister disappeared.
Not until the smoke started whispering her name.
Now, in the last surviving settlement on the edge of the desert, Elia is caught between a crumbling town, a man with secrets in his blood, and a god who wants more than just devotion.
Marked by forces she doesn't understand, watched by something ancient inside the god house, Elia is running out of time-and allies.
But she didn't come to Redgrave to kneel.
She came to burn it all down, if she has to.
A slow-burn post-apocalyptic romance with enemies at the gates, gods beneath the floorboards, and a girl who refuses to be sacrificed quietly.

He was sent to kill a threat. He brought her back instead. Now the Veil is shifting-and something buried is starting to wake. Nimya was supposed to be collateral. A mortal girl, found near a supernatural breach and marked by a scent not quite human. Commander Ryn of the Sentinarchs-god-born, oath-bound, and feared even by his own-should've followed protocol. Instead, he dragged her across the Veil. Now bound to a divine soldier she doesn't trust, Nimya finds herself trapped inside the Sanctum-a sacred fortress of rituals, relics, and bloodlines that see her as a threat. But something else sees her too. When Ryn touched her, the Veil stirred. Something ancient is watching from the other side. Something chained beneath the world-restless, patient, and searching for someone. As divine politics fracture and the Sanctum begins to turn, Nimya must survive a realm built to reject her... and a bond that was never meant to form. Because if the Veil falls, what's trapped beneath it won't stay buried. And gods will burn before it stops looking.Complete
