Noctis Rising - Paperback

by A. L. Richards (Author)

They don't want her dead.

They want her to surrender.

Serena Morrigan has spent five years in the shadows, hiding from a legacy carved in blood and bound to a city that eats its own. But Noctis is stirring again, its magic whispering her name, its monsters remembering. The powers that hunt her want her found so she can be shaped into something useful - the perfect heir to a future she never chose.

Gabriel Cade was supposed to be backup. Detached, professional, lethal. But Noctis doesn't breed clean exits, and the bond he shares with Serena, raw and entirely unexpected, may be the only thing keeping them both alive.

The cults are converging. The city is watching. And something older than prophecy is stirring beneath their feet.

They were never meant to fall for each other, but what they were meant for doesn't matter. Only what they become.

She's not the girl they expected.

She's the storm they never saw coming.
