This #1 New York Times bestseller is a highly addicting enemies-to-lovers Romantasy with razor-sharp banter, heart-stopping action, and blistering hot romance.
Do not touch the sword. Do not turn the key. Do not open the gate.
Twenty-four-year-old Saeris Fane is good at keeping secrets. No one knows about the strange powers she possesses, or the fact that she has been picking pockets and stealing from the Undying Queen’s reservoirs for as long as she can remember. In the land of the unforgiving desert, there isn’t much a girl wouldn’t do for a glass of water. But a secret is like a knot. Sooner or later, it is bound to come undone.
When Saeris comes face-to-face with Death himself, she inadvertently reopens a gateway between realms and is transported to a land of ice and snow. The Fae have always been the stuff of myth, of legend, of nightmares…but it turns out they’re real, and Saeris has landed right in the middle of a centuries-long conflict that might just get her killed.
The first of her kind to tread the frozen mountains of Yvelia in over a thousand years, Saeris mistakenly binds herself to Kingfisher, a handsome Fae warrior, who has secrets and nefarious agendas of his own. He will use her Alchemist’s magic to protect his people, no matter what it costs him… or her. Death has a name. It is Kingfisher of the Ajun Gate. His past is murky. His attitude stinks. And he’s the only way Saeris is going to make it home.
Be careful of the deals you make, dear child. The devil is in the details... Now with an embossed cover, silver foiling, and an updated interior design.

My Review
I can't believe I've been sitting on this since it came out. I've got multiple copies and yet I didn't start it. I wish I had because I'm a tad bit obsessed. Saeris is such a great character she's easy to connect with and you can't help cheering her on as she learns to work with quicksilver. Kingfisher is every bit the swoonworthy ancient tortured fae warrior that she needs. I loved Carrion he's just a perfect little edition to the story as well as Lorreth and Renfis.
I've heard nothing but amazing things about this one and I'm so mad at myself for waiting to experience Kingfisher. He's on the top of the book boyfriend list for sure. The real question I have is he the better shadow daddy? Now I feel like I need to re-read and compare them. This is a book I could have listened to in one sitting if real life would leave me alone. I plan to devour the next one in one sitting. I think Saeris and Kingfisher are the perfect power couple when it comes to romantasy. She can hold her own in a fight and I love that about her. They have great banter and this undeniable steamy connection.
This was my first book by the author but I'm hooked. She grabbed me right from the start and didn't let go till the final page. I'm still in my book hangover days later. I need to read Brimstone next as I can't wait to see how the story goes. The author has done a beautiful job creating a world where I want to step through the door and find my place in the fae world. That doesn't happen very often. Quicksilver is a captivating story that kept me hooked long after it ended. Highly recommend not waiting it's perfect the right balance of story to romance. Plus who doesn't love a cute fox.
