Hazel Trépas was born the thirteenth child—destined to serve a god. Her godfather? Merrick, the Dreaded End himself.
Gifted with the divine ability to heal, Hazel quickly rises in reputation. But her gift comes at a chilling cost: she must also know when Death has claimed a patient—and end their suffering. Haunted by the lives she couldn’t save, Hazel dreams of escape.
But fate has other plans. At the royal court, she meets the infuriatingly charming Prince Leo and is faced with her most impossible choice yet: obey her divine orders, or defy Death to save a marked king.
Inspired by the Grimm tale “Godfather Death,” this is a lush romantasy where love and loyalty clash with destiny—and every gift demands its price.
