A desperate girl with everything to lose. A cursed man bound by ancient bargains. And a final wish that could either save them both-or destroy everything she holds dear.

In a crumbling village at the edge of the kingdom, Serena knows survival is a daily battle. When heavy taxes threaten to steal her family's home, she turns to the ancient Well of Wishes-now little more than legend-and makes a dangerous plea for help.

That night, a stranger answers.

He can weave her whispered hopes into gold and grain, but every wish comes with a cost-a secret, a memory, a piece of her very soul.

As magic breathes life into the dying land, Serena finds herself tangled in an invisible bargain. The stranger is no ordinary man. He's a prisoner of the Well, cursed to grant wishes until someone dares to break the spell. And if Serena can uncover his true name before she loses herself completely, she might just rewrite both their fates.

But wishes have teeth-and some bargains were never meant to be broken.

A lush standalone fantasy perfect for fans of Rumpelstiltskin retellings, magical bargains, and fierce, heart-aching love stories.
