The Heart's Last Heir

In a world where love is both a miracle and a curse, Aurelia Fox has never believed in happy endings.
Not after watching her sister, Evangeline, chase one straight into ruin.

When Aurelia arrives in the wedding her sister pleaded for the fate to stop she expected roses and vows-
not statues frozen in eternal agony, or a garden that breathes with the echoes of heartbreak.
And among the ruins stands Jacks, the Prince of Hearts, with that same unholy charm and a smile sharp enough to wound.

He calls her darling as if it's a threat.
He claims he warned Evangeline.
And when Aurelia realizes her sister's sacrifice-that Evangeline turned herself to stone to save another-
something inside Aurelia fractures.

Fury and grief twist together, setting her on a collision course with the Fate who plays with hearts as if they were cards in his deck.
But Jacks is not the only one keeping secrets,
and Aurelia's magic-born from despair, fed by love-may be the very thing to unmake his world.

In a land of poisoned promises,
where every kiss can kill and every tale hides a curse,
Aurelia Fox will learn that even the broken-hearted can burn the brightest.
