All my life, death was right around the corner, I just never expected it to be delivered by the man I was falling in love with… Magic has been outlawed for almost a century and anyone caught wielding it, or bearing its mark, is executed. Which is why I know every day could be my last. I’m marked for death. My skin bears the branding of the moon. I just thank the stars that it’s not somewhere visible. For one night I willingly put myself in danger, picking a stranger to lose myself in before I begin my life of servitude to the crown as a member of the King’s Guard. But the man I thought was a stranger turns out to be the Blade of the King, Thorn, my new boss. It doesn’t matter that he’s temptation incarnate or that the slightest flick of his fingers against my skin brings back echoes of the night we spent in each other’s arms. We can never be together again because I can’t risk losing this job and I definitely can’t risk him finding out my secret. Not everything in the Eaorin Kingdom is as it seems though and my boss has secrets too. Ones that are just as deadly as my own…
