Burn With Me

By Erik L Seabury

Kaida is a Cinderheart, an assassin whose veins run with alchemical fire. Her power makes her lethal. It also gives her two years to live. When she's hired to kill Thorne Ashwick, a rogue ranger who betrayed the ruthless Lord Mercant, the contract should be simple. One kill, five hundred gold marks, and enough money to die comfortably. But
Thorne saves her life. He reveals a truth that shatters everything she knows: the fire burning inside her was forged from the souls of innocents. Hundreds murdered to create weapons like her. Thorne stole the only existing formula for that process, and Lord Mercant will do anything to get it back.
Marked for death by the assassin's guild and hunted by Mercant's forces, Kaida and Thorne forge an unlikely alliance. He's searching for a cure to save Cinderhearts like her. She's searching for a reason to believe she's more than the monster they made her. As they race across war-torn kingdoms gathering the components for an impossible cure, something shifts between them. Something dangerous. Something neither of them can afford.
Because the cure demands a terrible price. And Lord Mercant is always three steps ahead. In a world where love is a luxury and mercy is a weakness, two broken people must decide: what are they willing to sacrifice? What are they willing to become? And when the fire finally consumes everything, who chooses who burns?
A dark fantasy of impossible choices, devastating romance, and the question that has no answer: is being saved against your will an act of love, or the cruelest betrayal of all?
