Description

In the walled city of New Found Haven, love is a crime, mercy is a weakness, and survival depends on absolute obedience.

Greyson Serel has spent his entire life balancing two identities. To the public, he's the polished heir to a brutal political dynasty. Behind closed doors, he's hiding dangerous secrets that could bring the corrupt regime to its knees. When he's forced into a political marriage designed to strengthen the government's grip on power, Greyson expects another pawn—not a deadly assassin.

Shadera was raised to kill, not to become anyone's wife. After a failed mission leaves her at the mercy of the very man she was sent to assassinate, she's trapped inside the heart of the oppressive government she despises. Watched at every turn, surrounded by enemies, and bound by vows she never chose, Shadera must decide whether to keep fighting Greyson—or fight beside him.

As betrayals unravel, hidden alliances emerge, and rebellion begins to stir beneath the city's rigid social order, their forced marriage transforms into an uneasy partnership built on distrust, razor-sharp banter, and undeniable attraction. Together, they may become the spark that ignites a revolution—or the weapon that destroys everything.

Dark, gripping, and emotionally charged, Daggermouth delivers a high-stakes dystopian romance filled with political intrigue, morally gray characters, and an unforgettable enemies-to-lovers journey.
