A dark curse. A deadly secret. The ill-fated girl at the heart of both. Antonetta Ostwind is about to get everything she’s ever wanted. If all goes to plan, she’ll end the fae, steal back what was stolen, and win the post she’s dreamed of since she was a girl. There’s just one problem. His name is Gideon Alexander. Gideon holds the key to her coveted post. He’s fantastic with a sword, looks amazing in uniform, and commands even the adoration of his great, beastly dog. He’s living the life Etta needs. Gideon doesn’t believe Etta should have any of it. In fact, he’s planning to make sure she never does. And that’s a real problem, because if Etta can’t take her post as marshal, how can she have her vengeance and save the kingdom from the prince of the fae? Slip into clean, slow-burn romance with a properly stabby heroine and the low commitment of a standalone series in this light regency fantasy romp for fans of Enchantment of Ravens and Little Thieves.

    “Why, to unrend the kingdoms, of course.” What the heck does “unrend” mean?!?!

    I’m so lost. I’m not understanding anything of what I’m reading 🙃

    This book made my head hurt. The plot? Went into 5 different directions and somehow the author wrapped it all up in a pretty bow. I wish there was more world building, more explanations in terms of the storyline and that the romance would make a little more sense. I’m a little upset with myself because I have the second book to this series and I preordered the third, thinking I was going to like the first book 🫣
