England, 1535.

Anne Boleyn knows she’s running out of time before her neck’s on the executioner’s block. In a world where queens are disposable and men hold all the power, Anne is willing to tear down the Crown, burn the Church, and force a God to kneel if it means securing her reign and protecting her daughter.

George Boleyn is torn between his loyalty to his family and his love for an exiled god. As witches have been forced into hiding by the increasingly fractious wars between Crown and Church, he knows the only way to ensure his kind’s survival is by supporting Anne. But her schemes threaten more than just witches and mortals.

Fallen god Zephyr is forced into Anne’s schemes when his lover, George, calls on dangerous magick to challenge. He knows the price of meddling with the Fates is steep — and it’s never without blood. As the cost of George’s reckless gamble grows, Zephyr must confront the possibility that saving them all may come at a price he can’t afford.
