Published

He’s driven away eleven scouts in three years. She’s the first one who refuses to leave.
Sorrel Fenn talks to everything: the gate horses, the cook, and the flinty Warden who wants her gone before she’s even unpacked. Garrick Vane has spent a decade making Elmwatch’s border tower boring on purpose, driving away every curious scout before they linger too long near the old timber. He has his reasons, and none of them are easy to explain.

Then Sorrel discovers that her strange gift is more than luck. With her bare hands, she can read traces of truth and grief preserved inside wood. The three-hundred-year-old beams of Elmwatch give her an answer no one was meant to find: a hidden history surrounding a border lord who was executed for a crime a dragon’s testimony once cleared him of.

Garrick knows more about that history than he wants to admit. The same secret destroyed his family, and the harder he tries to keep Sorrel away from it, the closer she gets to the people who buried the truth.

Because the dragon beneath Elmwatch has been silent for generations. And when Sorrel finally discovers why, the old story holding the border together begins to fall apart.

Perfect for readers who love a grumpy Warden, a determined heroine, a hidden magical gift, a dragon with a buried truth, and a slow-burn fantasy romance built around secrets and trust.
