Description
In the rain-slicked, shadow-drenched streets of Edinburgh, magic doesn’t just hide in the corners—it bites. Aisla Laxmi is a chaos-prone wytch with a penchant for trouble, while Jinn is a grieving, lethal vampyre consumed by the weight of a devastating loss. Their first meeting is less of a spark and more of a catastrophe, defined by animosity and a desperate, half-drawn blade.
Yet, destiny or something more sinister forces their hands. Jinn requires a complex retraction spell to snatch a loved one back from the clutches of the grave, and Aisla is the only witch with the power—or the recklessness—to help. Trapped in a high-stakes countdown, the two rivals must navigate the dark history of the city and their own combustible chemistry.
As the tension between them shifts from sharp-edged hatred to a searing, irresistible heat, the line between ally and lover begins to blur. With only four nights to master an impossible ritual, Aisla and Jinn must decide if the price of resurrection is worth the risk of losing their hearts. In this gothic tale of forbidden longing, every spell cast brings them closer to salvation—or total destruction.
