Warden Of The Shattered Dome

Calderra's sky is broken-and when the auroral Firmament fails, the storm called the Nocturne hunts what light remains. The council's last gambit binds forge-mage Elara Ferrin to Gavriel Kade, the knight who resigned in disgrace, in a legal "marriage" called the Diarch Brace. Their job is simple to name and impossible to do: rebuild a shattered sky-dome before the city starves, riots, or goes dark for good.

Elara can sing metal into harmony but refuses to share control. Gavriel can hold a line against anything except his own guilt. Together they set a broken city to rights: training bell-tether crews, outmaneuvering an oligarch who profits from ruin, and following chalk-coded maps into the under-market where a cracked Master Keystone waits. As the Nocturne learns to eat sound, the pair turn grief into engineering and citizens into a living circuit.

But the Brace that makes them co-rulers also makes them housemates-and closeness has rules. Consent becomes ritual; trust becomes heat; duty becomes choice. On Equinox night, when the storm comes like a choir of knives, Elara and Gavriel must risk the last of their defenses-and the first of their hearts-to crown the city in light.

Warden of the Shattered Dome is a sweeping, sensual romantasy about rebuilding a world one rib, one vow, and one shared breath at a time.
