When you play with fire, someone always gets burned. In this cut-throat debut YA fantasy brimming with blackmail, heists, and an excruciatingly slow-burn romance, a princess with no morals must choose: survival, love, or revenge? Perfect for fans of Six of Crows and These Violent Delights.

'A mesmerizing debut fantasy.' - Rebecca Yarros

Blackmail. Murder. Betrayal. There isn't anything Teia won't do to stay alive.

Half Carthan and half Shaylani with the ability to manipulate both fire and water, she is an outcast in her own kingdom and has survived innumerable assassination attempts. All of which have been orchestrated by her half-brother. But once he is crowned king, nothing can save her.

When a rebellion seeks to overthrow the monarchy, Teia grabs at the chance to infiltrate the rebels, locate their base . . . and trade their lives for her own.

But as she gains their trust, Teia begins to question everything she knows. What if the rebels are right? What if the monarchy should be destroyed?

Or what if Teia took the throne for herself?
