Hearts of Obsidian #11
Steady
His glow hasn't warmed for anyone in over a century. Until her.
Hannah Wright doesn't talk about Sophie.
Her little sister died in the crash—and Hannah has never forgiven herself for letting go of her hand in the chaos. Now she pours herself into caring for the settlement's children, being what Sophie needed her to be. It's penance. It's purpose. It's not healing.
Varek hasn't loved anyone since Kyra.
His mate died in the plague over a century ago, and he's spent every year since filling the emptiness with his craft. Building furniture. Carving toys. Making beautiful, useful things to replace the beautiful life he lost. He's made peace with being alone. Or so he thought.
When they're assigned to build the settlement's first school together, something unexpected
His glow warms for the first time in 112 years.
She finds herself wanting to stay instead of disappear.
Grief recognizes grief. And sometimes, two broken hearts can help each other become whole.
But Hannah has spent four years believing she doesn't deserve happiness. And Varek knows exactly how much it hurts to lose someone you love. Can they risk feeling again—when they both know how easily joy can be taken away?
