About this book
Meet Katsa, a woman cursed with a Grace that makes her a lethal weapon—and her uncle the king's favorite tool for violence. But when she crosses paths with the mysterious and charming Prince Po, everything she thought she understood about her dangerous gift begins to unravel, and suddenly she's questioning whether the life she's been forced to live is truly who she is. What starts as an unexpected connection blossoms into a swoon-worthy romance as Katsa and Po uncover a conspiracy that threatens to tear apart the entire kingdom, forcing them both to decide what they're willing to fight for. This is a richly woven fantasy adventure that will have you falling for Katsa's fierce spirit and rooting for her journey toward freedom, love, and self-discovery.

“Create a playlist called Graceling. Haunting folk and indie with cinematic orchestral undertones—think Bon Iver's vulnerability meets Florence + The Machine's fierce magic. Ethereal yet grounded, featuring artists like The Oh Hellos and Hozier. Slow-burn romance wrapped in dark fantasy atmospheres, building from whispered introspection to swelling hope.”
