In a world where magic is cold, rigid, and defined by ancient sigils, Prince Kael's heart burns with a fire he can't control. Marked with the rare and volatile Emberheart, a young man whose magic is a direct reflection of his deepest emotions-fierce love, quiet joy, and the pain of hiding who he loves.
Alexander is a handsome young Page, bound to Kael's service but with a secret longing to become more. He's kept his feelings for the fiery young prince hidden, it is only when the search for answers about Kael's volatile magic forces them to seek for answers that Alexander finds courage to allow Kael to truly see him. He is drawn to Kael's raw power, seeing past the consuming flame to the vulnerable man who carries it, forming an undeniable bond that will change both of their lives.
Their bond ignites a new kind of magic, one born not of power, but of love and radical acceptance. It's a truth so powerful, it threatens to topple the old ways of a world that values control over connection.
Just as they find their place, a radiant stranger emerges from the mist, bearing a perfect, unmarked body and a profound sense of loss. He is a mystery-a man with no name who feels a piece of his soul is missing. To help him, Kael and Alexander must embark on a journey that will test the limits of their magic and their hearts.
To find his lost love, they must journey beyond all they've ever known. But can a magic born of love survive in a world that seeks to define them by their power?
