The world's greatest air-mage has lost his magic. And only she can bring it back...

Once, Regin Agmund was the realm's greatest lightning-caster - rich, famous, arrogant, and deadly.

Until he lost his magic.

Even the best experts can't understand it, and Regin is furious, miserable, and desperate enough to do anything... or anyone.

Even if it's a poor, unfashionable commoner...

Selby Seng is a simple, plainspoken pedlar, who practices an illicit branch of earth-magic.

She's shocked when she's confronted with an astonishing claim: she has a deep magical affinity with the great Regin Agmund. An affinity strong enough to bring his magic back.

The catch? Affinities work through closeness. Proximity. Touch.

It means moving in with the realm's richest, most notorious celebrity, and serving his every whim.

Even if he hates her. Even if he's cold and selfish and cruel. Even if he can barely look at her while he's taking his due...

But in Regin Agmund's volatile world of power, privilege, and danger, maybe an honest, grounded pedlar is just what he desperately needs...

Unless he destroys her first.
