'Daggermouth had me in a chokehold! Shadera Kael is bound to be your next favourite morally grey heroine. Impossible stakes, sizzling writing and plot twists you'll never see coming... this book has everything you want in a dark dystopian' - Sable Sorensen, USA Today bestselling author of Dire Bound
Mercy no longer exists.
New Found Haven is carved into rings of privilege and poverty, ruled by the masked elite who will do whatever it takes to hold onto power.
Obedience is demanded.
Greyson Serel has spent his life caught between two worlds. Publicly, he's the flawless heir to the presidency. Privately, he's entangled in secrets that could topple the regime. But when he's forced into a political marriage meant to bind him tighter to the government's brutal laws, he finds himself shackled to a bride who is as lethal as she is unwilling.
Rebellion is crushed.
Shadera Kael is a mercenary raised to kill, not to wed. Yet when her bullet misses its mark, survival leaves her bound to the very man she was sent to eliminate. Trapped inside the corrupt Heart, the centre of the city, she becomes both prisoner and wife, her every step watched, her every move tested.
Nothing is what it seems.
Their union is no love story - it's a battlefield. As secrets come to light and betrayals fester within the walls of power, Greyson and Shadera must decide between annihilating one another or burning the city to the ground together.
The Heart consumes.
In a world where passion incites rebellion and loyalty is paid for in blood, their forced bond may be the spark that ignites a revolution because...
Love outside of your ring is a death sentence.
Daggermouth is one of the best dystopian romances I've ever read' - Clio Evans, author of Broken Beginnings

She's fiercely passionate about mental health advocacy and the messy, powerful work of self-discovery, believing deeply that everyone deserves to see themselves represented in the stories they love. As you turn the final page of her books, Wolfe hopes you'll find a new kind of strength - ready to take on the world and own your story like the warrior she knows you are.
