Synopsis:
Enter a world ruled by tyrants and thieves, where magic is outlawed, revolution brews, desire is dangerous, and an impossible cure may prove deadlier than the curse. This deluxe hardcover publication features stunning edges, illustrated endpapers, foil-stamped case cover, and special effects on the jacket.
Never run. Never bow. Never die.
Reya Connery became the Crimson Dagger, the most notorious thief in Rhiterra, by following a strict set of rules. There is no honor among thieves. A good blade is key to any negotiation. Only the dead keep secrets. And Reya has a secret that must be kept at all costs. But when a heist goes wrong on the eve of paying off her debt to a ruthless crime lord, Reya may need a new set of rules. And a lot of coin. Fast.
Enter Caelan Halcyon, an immortal warrior whose magic makes him a valuable target β if the curse inching closer to his heart doesnβt kill him first. Thereβs just one person who might be desperate enough to try and get their hands on the fabled cure in time to save his life, someone whose legend claims they can steal the Crimson Dagger. A male of honor, Caelan loathes everything the beautiful, cocky thief represents, yet knows that Reya is his last hope for survival.
Their search takes them to the edge of the known world, where Reya discovers that there is far more at stake than her and Caelanβs own lives. Now, Reya must confront deadly foes, her growing attraction to the immortal who is as lethal as his jawline is perfect, and the rage sheβs spent a lifetime trying to bury. This time, her daggers arenβt going to cut it, and the fate of all magic-born hangs in the balance.
Introducing an epic, slow burn enemies-to-lovers romantasy novel about a heroine forged in steel and rage, and the cursed immortal who might turn out to be as much her salvation as she is his, perfect for fans of Danielle L. Jensen and Callie Hart.
Content Warning:Β Alcohol use and intoxication, animal death, blood and graphic violence, claustrophobia, death of a parent (shown explicitly on page), torture (off page), emotional and physical abuse at the hands of a mentor figure, explicit sexual content, grief and loss, kidnapping and forced confinement, and trauma


Taylor J. LaRue writes epic fantasies about heroines who play with steel, people who hate to love each other, and reckless hope.
She spent her early career as a journalist in the Windy City. Now she is realizing her moody aesthetic dreams in the Pacific Northwest, where she lives with her high school sweetheart turned husband, their tiny human tyrant, and one very soggy puppy. When sheβs not overindulging in butterscotch lattes and devouring advance reader copies, sheβs shopping for houseplants she will inevitably fail to keep alive. Her debut novel STEELBORN will publish in August of 2026.
