Nightshade: A Dark Romantic Fantasy Series (Riftstone Book 1)

I spent my entire life wanting out of my tower. Getting kidnapped wasn't quite what I had in mind.

In the floating city of Aetherion, celestial magic keeps us suspended above the dangerous world below. My mother insists the tower protects me.

But she didn't account for Kairos Nightshade.

He climbs through my window, calls me a bounty, binds my magic, and steals me away to the Undercity. He’s a smuggler. A Duskwalker. Darkness woven into human form.

And he's keeping me in a brothel until he can deliver me to the man who put a price on my head

Every criminal in the Undercity is hunting me now. The Duskwalker King wants me for reasons no one will speak aloud, and the man who kidnapped me is starting to look less like my captor and more like my only chance of survival.

He says I'm just a job.

I'm beginning to wonder which one of us he's trying to convince.

For readers who love dark fantasy romance, morally gray heroes, forced proximity, and slow-burn enemies-to-lovers, Nightshade is a Rapunzel-inspired romantasy where the princess isn't waiting to be rescued, and the man who kidnaps her isn't Prince Charming.
