You devoured Powerless for Paedyn's razor-sharp defiance and that delicious, slow-burning tension with Kai—now meet Tessa, a street alchemist who cons her way through a plague-ridden kingdom while trading barbs with a brooding prince who's hiding more than his identity. Kemmerer delivers that same addictive cocktail of forbidden chemistry, impossible odds, and a heroine who outsmarts power itself, wrapping high-stakes rebellion in banter so electric you'll feel the sparks.
Every heist carries emotional weight, every stolen glance threatens to unravel carefully built walls. The romance doesn't just simmer—it detonates against a backdrop of life-or-death trials that make Powerless's Purging Trials look tame.
If you're still chasing that Paedyn-and-Kai high, Tessa and her prince will ruin you in the best way.
"I loved the banter between Lochlan and Corrick, I love Quint and I love Tessa. I was emotionally destroyed at the end, holy cow. But I'm so glad it ended how it did and it was the perfect ending ❤️" — Rakkamuffin, Reddit
