SECOND EDITION

INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER AND BEST OF BOOKTOK SELECTION

"A romantasy masterpiece." LJ Andrews, Author of Broken Souls and Bone and The Ever King

"Charissa Weaks is always a romantasy must-read! I adore Raina's quiet strength and Alexus's brooding intensity. Sure to be the start of an epic, deliciously smouldering journey." Penn Cole, NYT Bestseller of Spark of the Everflame

"For the readers who crave a steamy enemies-to-lovers, slow-burn, action-packed romantasy, this book is the one for you." Book Riot

She set out to kill him. Now she has to survive him.

In this sweeping, spicy slow-burn romantasy, a silent witch's only path to saving her sister lies in the hands of the mysterious sorcerer she swore to kill. Hunted by dark forces across a malevolent frozen wilderness, the pair soon discover that their greatest threat might not be the army at their heels, but the attraction threatening to consume them both. Perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas, Jennifer L. Armentrout, and Devney Perry.

Every harvest moon, the Witch Collector rides into our valley and leads one of us to the home of the immortal Frost King, to remain forever.

Today is that dayβ€”Collecting Day.

But he will not come for me. I, Raina Bloodgood, have lived in this village for twenty-four years, and for twenty-four years he has passed me by.

His mistake.

Raina Bloodgood has one desire: kill the Frost King and the Witch Collector who stole her sister. On Collecting Day, she means to exact murderous revenge, but a more sinister threat sets fire to her world. Rising from the ashes is the Collector, Alexus Thibault, the man she vowed to slay and the only person who can help save her sister.

Thrust into an age-old story of ice, fire, and ancient gods, Raina must abandon vengeance and aid the Witch Collector or let their empireβ€”and her sisterβ€”fall into enemy hands. But the lines between good and evil blur, and Raina has more to lose than she imagined.

What is she to do when the Witch Collector is no longer the villain who stole her sister, but the hero who's stealing her heart?

About the Author

CHARISSA WEAKS is an internationally bestselling author of romantic and historical fantasy. She crafts stories with time travel, magick, myth, history, a dash of spice, and the occasional apocalyptic quest. Her debut novel The Witch Collector-the first of five books planned in the Witch Walker series-earned a Best of BookTok flag and is published in several languages. Charissa resides just south of Nashville with her family and wrinkly English Bulldog. When she's not writing, you can find her lost in a good book or digging through four-hundred-year-old texts for research.
