Synapsis:

Cordelia has spent her life walking the edge of a blade—torn between the tribe that raised her and the elvish blood that sets her apart. Her magic is volatile, a force she cannot control, and the only way to keep it at bay is to suppress it. To bury it. But power like hers does not stay dormant forever.

When a night of violence forces her to flee the only home she has ever known, Cordelia finds herself in the treacherous city of Raven Valley—a place where deception thrives, danger lurks in every shadow, and magic like hers is both feared and coveted. Caught in the web of Aurelius, a powerful and enigmatic man who seems to know more about her magic than she does, she is faced with a choice: trust him and unravel the mystery of her power or continue running from the truth of what she is.

But trust is dangerous, and Aurelius is not the only one with his eyes on her. As the city teeters on the brink of rebellion and old enemies resurface, Cordelia must decide whether to embrace the darkness within her or risk losing herself completely.

And amidst it all, she never expected to find something even more dangerous than magic—love.
