Talia’s day job as the village exorcist provides the perfect opportunity to case her clients’ homes for when she moonlights as a cunning thief. When she unwittingly steals cursed jewels from a powerful soulweaver, she pays the ultimate price.
The soulweaver takes her sister’s soul as payment. Desperate to save her sister, Talia strikes a deal. She will enter a deadly, magical tournament on behalf of the soulweaver. If she survives, she will claim the prize of a wish. The only payment the soulweaver will accept in exchange for the return of her sister.
Talia is paired with Taron as her teammate. Taron has his own reasons for entering the tournament and wants nothing to do with her. But they must find a way to work together if they are going to make it through the deadly trials alive. As Talia’s feelings for Taron grow, the stakes get even higher, and the ultimate price might be her heart.
©2026 Marilize Loxton (P)2026 W.F. Howes Ltd.THIS is how you do trials in fantasy. Every challenge felt tense without dragging and I was completely locked in the entire time. The writing itself was so well done too because it managed to feel really immersive without becoming heavy, and it made the entire world and atmosphere ridiculously easy to fall into. I kept saying “one more chapter” and suddenly half the book was gone.
Also I was OBSESSED with the MMC. Absolutely gone for this man from start to finish. The chemistry, the tension, the little moments mixed in with all the chaos… perfect.
And that ending??? I am genuinely gagging for the next book because there is no way you can leave me like that and expect me to be normal about it. An easy five stars for me.
Amazing!
