There are consequences for breaking a heart—even for a god. A year ago, a girl was found sleeping beside the river with no memory of who she was or where she came from. Now called Ella, she has built a quiet life in the small village of Riverton—friends, work, and the first hints of something like belonging. If only she didn’t feel the constant ache of something, or someone, missing. Everything changes when a stranger arrives in Riverton, searching for what he’s lost. Thane Tenebris is striking in a way that feels like memory rather than danger, a man whose quiet intensity draws Ella toward him long before she knows why. He seems connected to the emptiness in her chest, to the shadows at the edge of her dreams, and to the life she can almost, almost recall. As Ella and Thane grow closer, her forgotten past begins to stir—magic, heartbreak, and a love powerful enough to shatter even a god. And when one reckless night reveals the truth of who she is, Ella must face the life she left behind and the mistake that’s been waiting for her return. Some memories are blessings. Some are curses. But loving a god was always both.
