When Lee finally meets her destined magical partner, he's absolutely nothing she wanted—a vain, womanizing legend of a Source who seems to coast on charm and good looks. But when a catastrophic and inexplicable force wipes out every other bonded pair in their city, Lee and Karish are forced into an intense, life-or-death partnership that neither of them signed up for. As they work together to uncover what's threatening their realm, they'll have to navigate not just dangerous magic and impossible odds, but the undeniable chemistry sparking between them. This is a slow-burn romance wrapped in a thrilling fantasy mystery that'll make you root for two people who were absolutely certain they couldn't stand each other.
