The Last Breath: (The Revenant Cycle, Book One) A dark romantasy where every last breath becomes a weapon.

In Gravetide, the dead don’t rest—they hunt.

When someone dies, their final breath rises as a Revenant and stalks the one most responsible. The only way to live is to finish what the dead left undone. Ash Tarryn survives by guiding the desperate through last tasks, trading mercy for rent and medicine for her little brother. She swore she’d never die for anyone else’s guilt.

Then a three-hundred-year curse chooses her.

The city’s most feared Revenant—the Drowned King—marks Ash and drags her into a hunt tied to a lost princess held in an endless drowning. The Pale Court wants that power leashed. The Unchained want the truth out. Cole, a fixer with blood on his hands and a vow he won’t break, becomes the one person who will stand in front of blades for Ash… even when helping her could ruin them both.

To save the girl who can end the reign of kings, Ash must do the one thing she promised she never would: spend herself on someone else’s debt. If she fails, Gravetide drowns. If she succeeds, a new Revenant will rise—with Ash in its sights.

Dark magic. City-wide stakes. Found-under-fire loyalty. A slow-burn, high-risk romance.
The Last Breath launches The Revenant Cycle—perfect for fans of Fourth Wing–level adrenaline, Sabriel-style death lore, and morally gray lovers who choose each other in the worst moment.

Every death demands an answer. Every answer has a price.
