A Vow of Ash and Shadow

In a kingdom where royal fire rules and shadow magic means death, palace maid Lia Voss hides the power that sent her mother to the pyre. When the ruthless Flame Prince notices her—and her own shadow recognizes his fire—Lia’s carefully guarded life begins to unravel. A midnight attack and a summons to a ruined temple draw her toward a forbidden legacy, with the prince she blames for her mother’s death standing between her and the truth.
