For ten years, she has carried the same two sentences across the river. Now she is ready to discover what the silence was hiding.
Talis Bellrow has been the ferrywoman of Willowreach for ten years. Every evening, she carries the fae Warden across the Reach, following an old law that allows them only two ritual phrases and nothing more.
The people of Halewood call the Silence Accord a sacred tradition. Talis has never had a reason to question it. She has simply learned to live with the words she cannot say and the questions she cannot ask.
Ashur Rivenhall, Warden of the Crossing, has spent the same decade protecting the Reach and obeying the rules that were handed down to him. But the river has grown more dangerous with every passing season, and Ashur is beginning to suspect that the explanation he was given was never the whole truth.
When Talis’s unusual gift begins revealing what the river refuses to hide, the two of them uncover a secret buried beneath generations of tradition. The law that controls every word they speak is far newer than anyone was told, and the dragon blamed for the river’s danger may have been carrying the truth all along.
Talis’s mother questioned the same tradition eleven years ago. She never came home from the river. Now Talis is determined to learn what her mother discovered, even if the answer threatens the court, the Warden she has grown to love, and the life she has known.
Perfect for readers who love slow-burn fantasy romance, fae courts, dragon characters, forbidden secrets, hidden powers, and a romance built through years of restrained longing.
