Light Wielder

Rachel Schneider

Book 2 of Fire & Metal

Four years after the shattering betrayal that ended the first book, Jovie has become the feared Light Wielder, trying to hold back a brutal war her own choices helped ignite while suppressing the magical bond that still ties her to Acker. Acker, now bound by an unhappy political marriage, cannot fully sever his connection to her either, and stolen dream-visions keep pulling them back together. Told from both of their perspectives, the story follows the pair as they navigate divided loyalties, old wounds, and a looming new threat while deciding whether their bond can survive everything working against it. It closes out Jovie and Acker's arc as a complete story rather than leaving their romance unresolved.
