Her voice is sealed. A sapphire star beats at her throat. And a prince of a war-torn kingdom just found her hidden in the ice.
Seris Elira has spent eighteen years in a forgotten mountain tower, raised on prophecy and silence, guarding the Sapphire Vow—an ancient relic said to keep the world’s darkest power asleep. She was never meant to be seen… until Kael of Moren steps through her door with blood on his hands and a command he never wanted to obey: bring the vow home.
But the pendant doesn’t belong to any throne. It reacts to Kael like it recognizes him—lighting a path through assassins, snowbound courts, and lies older than their kingdoms. As rival rulers and ruthless hunters close in, Seris and Kael are forced into an alliance that turns dangerously intimate, stitching frost and flame into a bond neither of them can afford.
Because the truth behind the Sapphire Vow is worse than the prophecy: it isn’t a blessing. It’s a lock.
If it breaks, a forgotten god rises. If it holds, someone pays the price.
To save Elarion, Seris must reclaim her stolen life—and decide whether destiny will chain her… or burn with her choice.
