Heartless Hunter: The Crimson Moth: Book 1 by Kristen Ciccarelli

In a world where witches are hunted and magic is a death sentence, Rune Winters plays a dangerous game. By day, she’s the perfect socialite—flirting at glittering balls, sipping champagne, and charming the very witch hunters who destroyed her family. By night, she’s the Crimson Moth, a cunning vigilante who rescues witches from the pyre.

But when Gideon Sharpe, the republic’s most feared witch hunter, arrives with orders to root out the Moth, Rune’s carefully constructed double life begins to crumble. Worse still, she finds herself drawn to him—this enemy who could unravel everything she’s worked for. As the net closes in and the stakes grow deadly, Rune must decide how much she’s willing to risk for revenge, for justice, and for a love that could destroy them both.

Kristen Ciccarelli weaves a spellbinding tale of deception, forbidden romance, and fierce rebellion that will keep you turning pages late into the night. Heartless Hunter delivers:

• Enemies-to-lovers romance crackling with tension
