When a mind reader discovers that her abilities are the key to stopping an ancient evil threatening both worlds, she's forced to trust the one person whose thoughts she can never quite read—a dangerously attractive warrior with secrets of his own. As they navigate treacherous alliances and their own undeniable chemistry, she'll have to decide whether to trust her heart or her gifts. This thrilling sequel deepens the stakes of the Broken Realms with action-packed adventure, slow-burn romance, and characters you'll root for long after the final page.
Reading soundtrack
Dark, atmospheric fantasy romance with simmering tension and danger. Think moody alternative rock, haunting orchestral undertones, and sensual indie—like The Midnight, Halestorm, and Highly Suspect. Brooding, cinematic, with moments of electric chemistry cutting through shadow.
