Cruel is the Light Publisher's Summary

THE EPIC AND SIZZLING ROMANTASY. SOON TO BE YOUR NEXT OBSESSION . . .

A brutal war between demons and humanity has raged across Europe for over a century. At its heart are two elite soldiers: Selene Alleva, a powerful exorcists trained at the prestigious Vatican Academy, and foot soldier, Jules Lacroix, unrivalled in battle.

When their paths cross, despite initial distrust - then unwelcome attraction - Jules and Selene discover a terrible secret at the heart of the holy Vatican City . . .

Soon Jules is forced to question everything he's ever known - including himself. And Selene, unable to ignore her growing feelings for Jules, must make an impossible choice between love and duty.

Serpent and Dove meets Empire of the Vampire, with a star-crossed, enemies-to-lovers romance at its heart. Perfect for fans of Powerless, Fourth Wing and Divine Rivals.

'Set in a world as resplendent as it is brutal, with a taut, searing romance thrumming with can't-catch-your-breath tension. Cruel is the Light is a masterclass in romantasy and a thoroughly scorching debut.' - Bea Fitzgerald, bestselling author of GIRL, GODDESS, QUEEN
