Heir of Illusion

An alliance born of enemies. A weapon whispered about in nightmares. A bond sharp enough to carve open fate itself. Welcome to a kingdom built on secrets, betrayal, and the promise of no mercy. Ivy Pomeroy should be untouchable—her illusions can twist reality, bend perception, and hide any sin. But power means nothing when a king keeps her leashed with an enchanted collar, forcing her to play the obedient assassin while she quietly plots his ruin. Then a Reaper from Death’s Isle steps into her path—dangerously handsome, infuriatingly calm, and hunting the same forbidden weapon she needs to win her freedom. Their alliance is reluctant, electric, and edged with the kind of tension that feels more like temptation than threat. But the Isle of Illusion is a liar, and the deeper they dig, the darker the truths they uncover. Power shifts. Loyalties fray. Desire tangles with betrayal, until Ivy is no longer sure who the real monster is… or whether she wants to tame him at all. One thing is certain: She may wear a collar, but she is no one’s pet. She is the beast they invited in—and she’s done being controlled.
