Anarys Avries knows her life will end on her 19th birthday. She’s the weapon the Eternal Ruler has waited a thousand years for.

Unfortunately for him, that weapon refuses to become a killer…In war-torn Alnavara, a rare few possess unique Gifts, making them coveted treasures for those seeking control. Anarys is one of the Gifted, and when her freedom is taken and her existence reduced to a mere asset, she chooses defiance over surrender, knowing her life will end in just three months' time.

She will die, but others will live. But when her Gift evolves, allowing her to transcend realms, a chance encounter with a dangerously handsome enemy—a member of the Voiden—shatters everything she thought she knew.

Faced with information that could change more than just her own fate, Anarys must guard both her secrets and her heart, all while reconsidering her role in the war that’s spanned centuries. For all this time she’s been worried about those she’d be forced to kill, but what if instead she focused on those she could save?A YA slow-burn romantasy with high stakes, forbidden romance, found family, magic that comes at a cost, and a library full of books that only tell half the story.

In this enthralling tale of love, sacrifice, and self-discovery, the ultimate battle for freedom and a better world awaits. .
