Anna has lived her life under the shadow of ropes and wolves, hunted for the moonlight magic she shares with her three sisters. when she is dragged before the King's Hunt, branded for execution, Anna swears she will not kneel, even if it means her death. But her fate collides with Riley, a prince who carries the same blood as the crown yet bleeds rebellion in secret. Their bond is forged in violence and sharpened by desire, an alliance as dangerous as it is inevitable. As Levi, Riley's brother hunts witches through the city and the King tightens the noose, Anna must choose, burn her magic bright enough to tear the gallows down, or watch her sisters hang. Blood will stain the square. Lovers will be made from enemies. And the ropes that once bound her people will turn to ash at her feet.
