Daggermouth

New Found Haven is a city divided into rings, from the glass atriums of the Heart to the windowless slums of the Boundary. The masked elite who rule it will do anything to keep their power. They demand obedience and crush any rebellion, and the Veyra are always watching. The city's most dangerous rule is that loving someone outside your own ring means death.

Greyson Serel has lived between two worlds. In public he is the polished heir to the presidency. In private he is involved in secrets that could bring down the regime. When he is forced into a political marriage designed to tie him more firmly to the government's harsh laws, he finds his bride is as deadly as she is unwilling.

Shadera Kael is a mercenary who was raised to kill, not to marry. Her bullet misses its target, and surviving leaves her bound to the very man she was sent to eliminate. Held inside the corrupt center of the city, she is both prisoner and wife, with every step watched and every move tested.

Their marriage is a battlefield rather than a romance. As secrets surface and betrayals spread through the halls of power, Greyson and Shadera must choose between destroying each other and bringing the city down together. In a world where passion carries a price and loyalty is paid for in blood, their forced bond could spark a revolution, or consume them both.
