Inheritance of Ink: A Tale of Tenebra

By Grace Soto

Cozy mystery with a light academia setting and a kisses-only colleagues to lovers romance. Includes several hand-drawn illustrations by Jess Cantrell, MFA.

The biggest mysteries are those of the heart.

As a rhetoric and debate professor at the kingdom's best (and only) university, Nelius has never met a problem he can't solve with logic and reason-until the day he's accused of stealing a priceless artifact. Banned from campus and desperate to reclaim his honor and save his career before his debts come due, he'll do anything to prove his innocence. Even if it means working with an unreliable scrolls and chronicles professor...

Seraphine has one last chance to prove she's capable of handling the grueling schedule of a professor. If she can impress the headmaster with her historical research, perhaps she'll finally shake her unfair reputation for being unambitious and unreliable. But when the most crucial document to her studies is suddenly stolen, she'll have to forge new alliances and face old foes.

When the investigation uncovers a conspiracy buried in the city's dark history, Nelius and Seraphine are thrust into a web of lies that will force them to rethink everything they once believed about those they trust-and about each other, proving that the biggest mysteries are those of the heart.
