Set in a post-industrial age magical Isle, Peaky Blinders meets Shadow & Bone‘s Grishaverse in this fantasy romance where a contract marriage brings two enemies together but threatens to burn their city to the ground.

In a city split into two opposing sides, power comes in many forms: bloodlines, money, love, and—most importantly—secrets.

An heiress in the most notorious family in Lynchaven, Camilla Marchese is doing all she can to keep her family’s syndicate, the Iron Saint Railway, from slipping into bankruptcy. When the gorgeous and depraved Nicolai Attano, the leader of a rival family, offers to pay off the Inspector in exchange for her hand, she has no choice but to give up not only her throne—but her name.

Nico has his own motivations for their union beyond maintaining peace with her family. A serial kidnapper known as The Collector has been ravaging the streets of Remnant Row, stirring up mistrust between natives and descendants. If Milla can help restore safety to his streets, he’ll have no need for her or her family’s company. So he offers her a deal.

Find the Collector, prevent a war, and pay off the debt. If Milla can fulfill her end of the bargain, she’ll walk away with more freedom than ever before. But this deal plunges Milla into the city’s dark underbelly where remnant magic and arcane science compete in a deadly game of depravity. When forbidden feelings rise for her new husband and dark family secrets come to light, Milla must discover the truth before it gets them both killed or worse—collected.
