A Secret in the Ashes

From the moment he saw her, he wanted her. There's just one problem. His dark fae boss has marked her for death.

The night Kit Ashe answers her estranged sister's desperate call, she has no idea that she's been marked by the Shadow Court—a ruthless, hidden world of deadly fae—and that one of its most dangerous enforcers has already slipped into her apartment, watching her from the shadows.

Flint is everything the dark fae court demands—cold, violent, and loyal. His order to watch Kit seems like one more tedious task in a realm he despises. Until the moment he sees her. That's when he knows he wants her. Not for the court he serves but for himself.

Fierce yet fragile, haunted yet defiant—she lights something in the dark fae's ruthless heart that he'd thought dead for centuries. But defying everything he's ever known to claim a mortal prize comes at a steep price—one that just might ruin him forever.

A Secret in the Ashes by Thea Atkinson is a gripping tale of desire and defiance in a hidden world of danger.
