Lies of the Wicked (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798218494933)

"This is where we disagree. You're unequivocally powerful, you don't complain despite what you carry, and you're the most brutal, beautiful thing I've ever met."

Thessa Skiafer is a young witch and bladesmith, with a secret to keep. Living in a realm guarded by Elemental soldiers, makes this a very dangerous truth to hold. Perhaps that's why she suffers with anxiety; she lives in a world she does not belong in.

When a demon uncovers her lies, he offers her sanctuary in return for joining his rebellion. Though she's reluctant to fight, she's quickly captivated by his magic.

After a brutal attack against him, her trust blooms alongside her feelings. Thessa learns the price of freedom, as well as love, and fighting for both will either kill or complete her.

Themes include discovery of magic and self.
