The Second Death of Locke (The Hand and the Heart, 1)
"Intricately imagined and deftly told, The Second Death of Locke is the perfect pairing of romance, pining, and sprawling epic fantasy." ―Hannah Whitten, author of The Foxglove King
Love. Loyalty. Sacrifice.
Grey Flynn has dedicated her life to her mage, Kier. She will be his blade on the battlefield, his healer and protector. The deep well of raw power inside her is Kier's to wield. They are bound together by blood and magic, but there is one truth Grey dare not reveal ... not even to Kier.
When a quest to protect the child of an enemy kingdom pulls them into a dangerous mission, Grey will need to decide what she's willing to sacrifice to protect her secret. For Grey is no ordinary magical well, and if she dies, all magic dies with her.
The Second Death of Locke is the first in a collection of interconnected standalones set in the same world.
"Gritty, romantic, and breathlessly fierce, The Second Death of Locke will grip your heart and never let go." ―Tasha Suri, author of The Jasmine Throne

And for the first time, neither main character was a stupid annoying person. The only annoying part was how they both don’t realize how much they yearn for each other after being BEST friends for so many years.
I love how they’re both grown adults with their own trauma but their loyalty to one another from the very first page is SO intense.
