To save her dying brother, the greatest thief in the mortal realm just made a bargain with a monster. The prize? His literal, stolen heart.

n

Kaelen Driscoll, known in the shadows as the Wraith of the Borderlands, has stolen from noble houses, sunken ruins, and dragon aeries. But her latest target is suicide: the Silent Keep of the Night Court. Desperate to find a vial of pure starlight to cure her brother's fatal fae curse, Kaelen infiltrates the vault of Eryx Valthor, the immortal Shadow King.

She doesn't make it out.

Instead of an execution, Eryx offers her a terrifying trade. Three centuries ago, the king's capacity to feel was ripped from his chest and hidden deep within the treacherous Emberwood. He is completely hollow—incapable of love, joy, or mercy. If Kaelen can brave the lethal horrors of the Wild Court and steal back his missing emotions, he will give her the starlight. If she fails, her soul belongs to the Night Court for a century.

But the Heartstone is guarded by blood-magic, spectral hounds, and the cruel madness of the Erlking. As Kaelen navigates the treacherous shadow-realm, she begins to realize the cold, calculating king might not be the monster the legends claim. And returning three centuries of suppressed emotion to the most powerful shadow-mage in existence might just shatter them both.

A gripping dark fantasy romance perfect for fans of high-stakes heists, deadly fae bargains, and slow-burn enemies-to-lovers tension.
