Ruby Morvannon, the last Sidhe assassin of the Nocturnes, has survived centuries of bloodshed by following one rule: never hesitate. But when she is commanded to kill Stone-an emerging warrior of the Shadow Court-her instinct falters for the first time. His quiet honor, his fierce protectiveness, and the dangerous magic woven through his blood awaken something she has long buried.
As political tensions sharpen between fae courts and the Stygian Darkness twists toward vengeance, Ruby becomes entangled in a fate that spans realms and generations. Her choices will shape the rise of future queens, the fall of kingdoms, and the life of a child whose destiny impacts the mortal world.
A Serpent in the Embers is a dark, atmospheric romantasy set long before the events of the Iron King's Assassin series. It blends gothic fae mythology, slow-burn romantic tension, high-stakes magic, and the emotional intensity readers expect from modern romantasy.
Perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas, Carissa Broadbent, and Jennifer L. Armentrout.
