Porcelain smiles. Cursed bargains. Second Chances.
He’s a witch born of a god. She’s the only one who can read his forbidden book.
On an archeological dig in rural Ireland, Aisling's friend is targeted by a monster, a nightmare dressed as a daydream. Folklore obsessed Aisling is convinced the death is supernatural and she reaches out to Elliot Phoenix for help. He is a powerful witch and he could save her friend but he doesn't, her friend is murdered in her dreams.
Now, years later, she has stopped believing in magic but Elliot arrives in her life needing her help. She hates him for letting her friend get killed. But she is the only one who can read his grimoire and she can't let more people die.
But Aisling is tied to this at a deeper level. It is linked to a past life in ancient Ireland where she was the druid Flame, devotee of the Goddess Brigid. She must embrace her past and remember the well and the oak.
While facing this Fae threat, Aisling and Elliot get closer, their feelings become clear. But to survive they must pay a terrible price. A fae curse will be enacted. They will be covered with runes which light up and burn when they touch. All contact is forbidden or the world burns.
Now, hunted by Fae nightmares and bound by a bargain neither can break, they’ll fight side by side… and burn for each other.
He can’t touch her. She can’t look away.
A slow-burn enemies-to-lovers romantasy set in a supernatural Ireland. A dark romantasy of soulmates, doomed desire, and dolls that see everything.
Perfect for fans of Kate Daniels and ACOTAR.
3 / 5 spice. Celtic magic. One kiss that could end them both.
Enter if you dare.
