A prophecy names Riven as the destroyer of the realm-but the only person who can calm his flames is the scholar who stole that very prophecy.

Riven, the Firebound champion, has spent years hiding in the Ashen Wastes, cursed with flames that burn hotter than reason and threaten to consume everything he touches. His exile is the only way to protect the world from the inferno he carries within him.

Evelyne, a brilliant but reckless scholar, is fleeing the same forces that hunt Riven. She crashes into his solitude carrying a stolen prophecy-one that reveals Riven's role in an apocalyptic catastrophe and hints at a second, far more terrible truth: a price must be paid, and it may be her heart.

Forced into proximity, Riven and Evelyne begin a wary journey across blasted lands where every spark could be their last. Evelyne discovers she can soothe the flames that torment Riven, and Riven learns that the fire he feared might also be the key to his redemption.

Yet the prophecy grows heavier with every step, whispering a fate neither of them wants to face. As the world edges toward war and ancient magic stirs in the shadows, the bond between them strengthens-fragile, dangerous, and impossible to ignore.

When the flames rise again and the prophecy reaches its final line, Riven and Evelyne must decide whether they will let destiny burn them... or rewrite it together.

In a world where fire and ash shape fate, love may be the greatest spark of all.
