Do not trust the handsome tailor. Do not plant the stolen seeds. And whatever you do, do not fall for the man with secrets as ancient as the gods.
I’m a botanist on the run. My secret isn’t just that I stole world-altering seeds from my dangerous ex—it’s that they’re starting to grow. The charming town of St. Helena was meant to be my sanctuary, a place to hide and study my discovery in peace.
Then I meet Elias. The town’s grumpy tailor is as magnetic as he is mysterious. He watches me with stormy eyes that hold the weight of centuries, and he promises protection. But I soon learn that some secrets are buried for a reason.
When my past finds me, it’s not just an academic rival at my door—it’s a malevolent god who wants what I’ve grown.
I was never meant to be a player in a divine game. But what if the power they're all fighting over isn't just in the seeds? What if it's in me?
