Nova Castaneda broke fate, and paid the price.
Bound by an illegal soul-bond to the Celestial Courts’ most feared executioner, Nova is no longer just a Starweaver on the run. She is a liability. A weapon. And a threat the cosmos intends to erase.
Cael Nightfall was created to enforce destiny, not defy it. But the bond tying him to Nova has shattered centuries of obedience, awakening doubt the Courts will not tolerate. Every choice he makes now carries catastrophic consequences—for her, for himself, and for the fragile balance holding reality together.
As the Celestial Courts tighten their grip, secrets buried since the Seventeen-Minute War rise to the surface. The truth behind the Unraveling Protocol. The real purpose of Starweavers. And the devastating cost of rewriting fate more than once.
Hunted across fractured realms, Nova’s power grows stronger—and more dangerous—each time she uses it, stripping away pieces of her past she can never reclaim. Cael must decide how far he’s willing to fall to protect her… even if it means becoming the very monster he was forged to be.
Because fate doesn’t forgive rebellion.
And the stars are about to demand blood.
