A dragul keeper unraveling ancient mysteries. A soldat driven by his past. A world on the brink of chaos.

Britt Helsing is determined to wade through arcane and mayhem to keep her word and find Henrik’s long-lost mother, Selma, on the distant mainland. Henrik is just as resolved to find Selma while keeping Britt, and the Isles, safe. Their shared journey becomes far more dangerous—and personal—than either of them expected.

Accompanied by pirate Burning Beard on his arcane-infused ship, Britt and Henrik sail to the mainland where rebellion stirs, wyverns awaken, and an enigmatic leader promises aid in exchange for their help.

As Britt spies on wyverns, she discovers a chilling truth: ancient beings are regaining their arcane power. Meanwhile, Henrik avoids his growing feelings for Britt to plan an invasion of his old home. Unlikely allies help him out.

With secrets to unwind, curses to break, and alliances to forge, they must navigate dangerous waters that could set their lives, and their hearts, adrift. The price of peace may cost them more than they’re willing to pay.

In a world where love and loyalty are tested by war and arcane, will Britt and Henrik find the strength to face the storms ahead together—or be swept away by them?
