Quicksilver by Callie Hart
(Fae & Alchemy, Book 1 of 3) — No.1 New York Times Bestseller • Sunday Times Bestseller

Razor-sharp banter, heart-stopping action, and blistering hot romance — the enemies-to-lovers romantasy sensation from global phenomenon Callie Hart.

Do not touch the sword. Do not turn the key. Do not open the gate.

Saeris Fane is good at keeping secrets. No one knows about her strange alchemical powers, or the fact that she's been stealing from the Undying Queen for most of her life. But a secret is like a knot — sooner or later, it's bound to come undone. When Saeris is caught stealing something she shouldn't, she inadvertently reopens a gateway between realms and is whisked away to a land of ice and snow.

The Fae are not only real — they're caught up in a centuries-long conflict that might get her killed. And she has accidentally bound herself to one of them. Kingfisher is undeniably powerful, but does that make him good? The warrior is tormented by dark secrets of his own, and he will use Saeris's secret magic to protect his people, no matter what it costs him … or her.

• 🖤 Kingfisher — a smoking-hot Fae warrior with dark secrets and a nefarious agenda who will make your heart melt
