She was forged for war. He was born from it. Could their love be the deadliest weapon?

Raised among the seafaring Alaha – exiles of a war the world forgot – Brynn has trained her entire life to protect her people and uphold a fragile peace. She knows her place, her purpose, and the stories she’s been told. But everything begins to fracture the moment she meets him.

A Kenta soldier. An enemy. And the first person to really see her. He claims Brynn was never meant to live at sea, that her blood holds magic the Alaha swore to forget, that a rebellion is coming – and she’s at the heart of it.

He’s the threat she was trained to kill. She’s the secret he was sent to find.

And together, they might just break the world . . .
