A BookTok and Bookstagram hit! In this follow-up to romantasy debut Spark of the Everflame, war is coming and dangerous enemies wait on all sides... but the most deadly battle Diem faces may be the one for her heart. Now in an exclusive paperback edition featuring a never-before-seen bonus chapter and collectible design.

The threat of war has arrived at Diem’s doorstep, along with a new discovery that could save her people. To use it, she must survive the next thirty days by forming a perilous bargain with the people she hates most: the royal family of House Corbois.

But as she dives into the world of the Descended elite, Diem quickly realises good and evil aren’t as simple as they seem. Old prejudices are challenged, and new loyalties blur the line between friend and foe.

Meanwhile, her mother is still missing, and the secrets she left behind can no longer be ignored – and neither can the Guardians and their demands. Caught between an old flame and a sizzling new spark, Diem must confront the truth about who she is and what she wants before time runs out.
