A year after rescuing her grandmother — only to lose her again — Ennah clings to the fragile peace she's found in Amador's arms. But when her aunt dies and the criminal magic syndicate Cágila demands a staggering fee for protection from Damagic, that peace begins to crumble. Desperate for a way out, and thrilled about taking the relationship further, she accepts Amador's invitation to join him in Sentisse — even though the Mage who once hunted her hasn't stopped looking.

Years earlier, far from the vineyard, Kayetan begins his Magical training under the renowned Grand Master Vorvalus. But it's the Grand Master's daughter, Melena — sharp-tongued, clever, and promised to another — who becomes his greatest distraction. Falling for her was never part of the plan, but their hearts refuse to obey.

As love blossoms in the shadows of duty and deception, Ennah, Kayetan, and Melena must each decide what they're willing to risk. Love may light the way — or lead them deeper into the dark.
