The city of Caraza sits poised on the edge of chaos—and cursebreaker Marlow Briggs is at the centre of a deadly struggle for power. In the tragic aftermath of the Vale-Falcrest wedding, Marlow is spurned by Adrius, who refuses to speak to her and publicly vows to find a noble wife before the year is out. Despite her heartbreak, Marlow is still intent on breaking his compulsion curse. To do so, she'll have to play loving daughter to the man who cast it—the man who's hellbent on reshaping Caraza in his own image, no matter the cost.

But the closer she gets to her long-lost father, the more Marlow starts to question if he's really the villain she's made him out to be. As the lines between enemy and ally blur, Marlow must decide if she's willing to sacrifice her heart's desire to save a city that wants her dead.

Masquerade of the Heart is a thrilling tale of love, betrayal, and the complex ties that bind us.
