In the Court of Whispered Vows, mortals with magic are bound to fae lords as anchors—living stabilizers for volatile power. Sera Ashborne watched her mother die as an anchor and swore she'd never suffer the same fate.
But when the ruthless Countess forces her hand, Sera must choose: bind herself to a cruel master, or accept the offer of Lord Kieran—a fae whose storm magic is so dangerous, even he fears it.
Kieran promises partnership, not servitude. Freedom, not chains. And impossibly, he keeps his word.
As their bond grows stronger, transforming them both, Sera discovers that love might be the most powerful magic of all. But the Countess isn't finished with them. To survive, Sera must face a deadly trial that will either prove their bond unbreakable—or destroy them both.
