About this book
On an island where necromancy once reigned, the House of Teeth stands as a defiant remnant of a fallen era. After a conqueror’s blade extinguished the noble bloodlines and their dark arcane secrets, only two women remain: the beautiful heiress Marozia and her silent, uncanny cousin, Agnes. To reclaim their family’s lost power and avenge their honor, Agnes orchestrates a dangerous infiltration of the conqueror’s court, arranging a betrothal between Marozia and Liuprand, the golden heir to the throne.
Access to the castle’s forbidden library is the ultimate prize, but the mission is fraught with lethal complexity. As Agnes navigates the grotesquely grand halls of her enemy, she finds herself drawn to the very man she is sworn to destroy. Liuprand is not merely a figurehead of the new order, but a soul who unexpectedly mirrors her own, sparking a treasonous and all-consuming passion.
Caught between the cold demands of vengeance and a forbidden, volatile desire, Agnes must navigate a landscape of shifting loyalties. She faces a singular, harrowing ultimatum: she must restore her house’s legacy, but to succeed, she is strictly forbidden from falling in love. In this gothic tale of doom, one kiss could ignite a kingdom’s ruin.

"I don’t know why Ava Reid’s books are not absolutely everywhere. She has this unique way of writing dark complex fantasy that reads like historical fiction, but has Gothic fairytale undertones that just immerse you. The tone rating of this one definitely reminded me of her last one, Lady Macbeth. It has all of the elements that you want: warring houses, orphaned girls with power they must suppress to survive, prophecy and duty as well as passionate, forbidden love. My guess is the ending won’t be for everyone, but I thought it was pitch perfect. Read this if you liked The Knight and the Moth. ["

Jazmine ArvizuI don't know how to feel about this one,
"I went in knowing this book wasn't going to have a happy ending and this is my first Ava Reid book to so, what I'm trying to say this type of book isn't something I'd normally read. I've only ever read happily ever after's and the only reason I picked up this one was because I thought the title sounded so cool and I saw a vid of someone who got an Arc and they said it was good to. So... I really don't know how to feel, like on one hand I'm upset with what happened to Agnes but at the same time the book was beautifully written that I don't hate it. I will say it was slow in the beginning and I did have to push myself through it. Towards the end I did find myself feeling bad for Marioza to, so there's that. I enjoyed it don't get me wrong, when the plot finally began to pick up it engrossed me and I couldn't put it down. And the only reason I'm not rating it a full five is because... honestly my reason isn't valid because again I didn't like what happened to Agnes because I'm used to HEA's. Anyways, 4/5 ⭐ ["
