Summary
Stopping the ritual was supposed to save the world. Instead, it tied her to the one who caused its ruin.
Rook never wanted to lead. Thedas is imploding—Blight swallowing the lands, the Evanuris gathering power—and now she must carry a fractured team through the end of days. It’s no easy task, especially when her strange connection to the Fade drags her into the presence of her greatest adversary every night, against her will.
Solas is the only one who can help her, but his cryptic words and lingering stares pull her deeper into his orbit. Every conversation is a battle of wills, every moment a knife twisting between them. He’s infuriating, prideful, and impossible to trust. She’s reckless, stubborn, and entirely too clever for her own good. And yet, the more they tear into each other’s wounds, the harder it becomes to pull away.
With the world at stake, Rook must decide whether to trust the man who shattered it—or risk losing everything. Even if she’s already in too deep.OR
Two emotionally constipated disasters try to avoid falling for each other and fail miserably. Everyone suffers for it.
