Saltblood lowborn Axira Merreri survives the decaying districts by keeping her heart locked tight, couriering goods by day - and smuggling the ruler's euphoric Heartfillers to the highborn by night.

When she strikes a dangerous bargain to steal something from the Tournament of Hearts, a ruthless dating competition for highborn citizenship, she enters. Not for love. For freedom. But as the twisted allure of the competition turns deadly, an unexpected connection cracks her defenses, forcing her to confront a truth she In a regime built on engineered happiness, the most dangerous weapon she has is her heart. |
