At the Edge of Desire

At the Edge of Desire

Ellie Sanders

Part of the Jewel in the Crown Universe

I am a rare thing. A dangerously rare thing. In a world where kings and warlords have the power to meld the air around them, I alone have the power to seduce, to beguile, to drive men incandescently mad with lust. My species has been hunted, used, and mistreated for so long that no one believes we still exist. And yet I do. When my home is destroyed, I am sold at auction as a spoil of war. No one knows what I am, what my true nature is, and I must do everything in my power to hide it. To conceal it. To keep it from them. Only my secret gets exposed, and the entire world discovers what I am. And now I am caught up in a battle of wills between a sadistic warlord and a king, who might, if I dare to hope, just be my salvation.

Zainab Sambo

Taylor Cruz lives for midnight roads and illegal grids, racing as Havoc—the street-racing ghost everyone films and no one catches. When a viral clip detonates her life and costs her license, Marco Vieri, an F1 team owner on the brink of collapse, offers her a last-chance gamble: three weeks in Monaco to prove she deserves one seat on his failing team. Standing in her way is Luca Vieri, the team’s flawless golden driver—and Marco’s son—who distrusts her past and the spotlight that follows her. When River Thorne resurfaces, the pressure turns personal. In Formula 1, speed isn’t the only thing that breaks you—sometimes it’s the spotlight, the crash, or the person you can’t afford to care about.
