Brimstone

Duty, blood, honor, power.

Saeris Fane never craved the crown, and she certainly never wanted her name to be the focus of every whisper in the Blood Court. But as the newly anointed queen, she is quickly learning that a sovereign's life is no longer her own. The weight of leadership is a heavy burden, and the responsibilities are starting to pile up.

Her brother and her ward are desperate for her return to the desert heat of her homeland, but the very magic that has empowered Saeris has also created a lethal vulnerability. Born under the scorching sun, she now faces a certain death if she attempts to cross through the frozen Quicksilver. For the first time, the Queen of the Blood Court is trapped, forced to send others to fight the battles she cannot reach.

"Keep your mouth shut. Stay in the shadows. And for the love of all seven Gods, do NOT crack any jokes."

Kingfisher of the Ajun Gate has faced down entire armies and survived the most visceral horrors of the Fae realms, but his current mission might be his undoing. Traveling back to the desert city of Zilvaren with the insufferable Carrion Swift is testing his legendary patience, mostly because the smuggler simply refuses to be quiet. As they navigate the treacherous, narrow alleyways of the Silver City, they are met with hidden dangers and secrets that threaten to upend everything they know. Fisher must manage his chaotic companion and secure their objectives quickly, because every moment spent in the sand is a moment away from the mate he is desperate to protect.
