Scorching slow burn. Morally grey men. And enemies who burn so much hotter than lovers...

I came to Camelot to kill a king.
Instead, I became his obsession.

Magic is banned in Camelot. It's hunted, executed, then erased.

When my own power surfaces, I’m marked for death and forced to cross the infamous Standing Stones… right into the hands of Merlin himself.

Merlin turns me into something dangerous.
A weapon.
A secret.
A woman trained to destroy a king.

Now I’ve returned to Camelot in disguise as a male knight, in order to take part in the Shadow Trials—the king’s ruthless process to recruit the realm's best warriors.

My objective is to eliminate Arthur Pendragon from within. But Arthur isn’t the man I thought he would be... Brutally handsome, yes, but he's also as cruel as he is magnetic.

What's more, his icy blue eyes seem to see through me as easily as he wields the magic he condemns.

He wants my surrender; he gets my defiance.

And when he drags me to the edge of obedience, hatred starts to taste a lot like hunger.

Enter Lancelot, Arthur’s premier knight. Lance is keen, deadly, and sinfully beautiful.
He watches me like he can see the woman beneath the knight's disguise… and he's already deciding what to do with her.

In a court built on secrets and betrayal, surviving the Shadow Trials means choosing the right enemy.

One wants to break me. One wants to claim me.
And both would burn down kingdoms for the truth I’m hiding.
