Kiss Of The Black Flame [Special Edition]

*Book One in The Bookbinder's Bargain Series

From the internationally bestselling author of the Legends of Thezmarr series comes an epic romantasy trilogy about a gifted bookbinder and a cursed immortal general bound together by a dangerous magical bargain.

Some bargains are sealed with blood... Others with fire... The deadliest are sealed with a kiss...

Saige Grayson has always believed stories could heal. The capital's most promising bookbinder, she works through chronic pain and crushing debt. But when the man she owes decides her rare talent is worth more than coin, Saige is traded to the Azkari - an immortal race forged by the gods for war.

Her only chance of survival lies with Archer, a fallen Azkari general imprisoned beside her - cursed, dangerous and impossible to ignore. He offers her a way out, and in return, Saige must help him retrieve and restore an ancient book. One made of living magic, powerful enough to stop a great evil . . . or unleash it.

As Saige works with Archer, the tome begins to awaken something dark - both in the realm and within her. With enemies closing in and buried memories resurfacing, they must decide what they're willing to sacrifice: their freedom, their fragile trust ... or the spark that could ignite the world.
