To survive a world built to extinguish her light, Gabriella must do the one thing she swore she'd never do again... trust a beautiful, infuriating fae duke with a dark past.

Gabriella was bred as a weapon-part angel, part fae, part human, raised in a gilded tower where affection was a liability, and men were monsters with pretty faces. Now the power elite that forged her has perfected siphoning, a ritual that strips fae and angels to a screaming husk. When Gabriella wakes shackled beneath the tower that made her, she knows two things: if they discover what she is, the prophecy will burn... and she will, too.

Sevrin has survived the ward through ruthlessness, secrets, and one crucial lie: he's promised the Eligere he'll fight for them. A royal-blood fae with shadows at his call and guilt carved into his bones, he's done being anyone's hero-until Gabriella crashes into his world, all molten power and lethal fury. The Eligere want her light on their altar. Sevrin wants her bound to him in a forbidden bond that could turn the siphon back on their captors. Bond with him, and they might escape. Refuse, and she'll learn what it means to be drained-body, magic, and soul.

Forced into a brutal bargain, Gabriella and Sevrin become unwilling allies in a dungeon where coupling is currency, desire is weaponized, and every touch could be the start of a sacred rite... or a death sentence. As their powers twine-her light, his shadow-their enemies tighten the noose around the prophecy child above, and every stolen moment between them pulls Gabriella closer to the one fate she fears most: belonging.

If you love spicy romantasy, razor-edged banter, "touch her and die" energy, morally gray fae, dungeon-forced proximity, and scorching, high-stakes bonds, you'll devour Shards & Shadow, a dark, spicy romantasy set in The Angels & Fae of Tenebrea universe.
