Mirror's Shadow

By J.R. Hicks

In the City of Thorns and Mirrors, shadows whisper and reflections lie. Sylas, branded an outcast and cursed with scars that glow when he steps through darkness, survives by skirting the edges of the city's underworld. To the guild that once owned him, he is a weapon. To the Inquisitors, he is a heresy to be burned. To the mirror-worshiping cult, he is a chosen consort foretold in prophecy. But to Elythra, the silver-eyed being who dwells within the city's endless mirrors, he is something else entirely. She calls him Shadow Walker. She waits in every shard of glass, every pool of water, every polished blade. Her voice tempts him with promises of belonging, of desire, of a place where his scars will no longer mark him as broken. As Sylas is hunted by enemies both mortal and divine, his fear of Elythra begins to shift into a dangerous fascination. Each step he takes to escape her draws him closer to the glass. Each whisper of hers unravels his resolve. And when the city erupts in fire and blood, Sylas must finally choose: remain a fugitive in the shadows... or surrender to Elythra's embrace, where love and annihilation are one. Dark, sensual, and unrelenting, Mirror's Shadow is a gothic fantasy romance about fear, desire, and the beauty of surrender.
