FearlessSpice level, tropes & is it dark romance?
Spice 1/5 (Embers) · Darkness 2/5 (Grey) · 4 trigger warnings flagged · Standalone
Low spice, not dark romance. Good for readers who want romantasy without the heat.
The last book in Lauren Roberts' Powerless Trilogy, out in 2025. Paedyn and Kai are back in Ilya, and one choice of hers decides who lives. The door stays closed, same as books one and two. Read Powerless and Reckless before this. This note is ours. It is not a publisher blurb.
First published: Simon & Schuster, 8 April 2025. Standalone.
