The Well of Tears [Paperback]

A merchant's daughter trapped in a loveless political marriage. A kingdom fracturing under the weight of ancient magic. And a well that grants visions — for a price paid in sorrow. This is epic fantasy that trades sword-swinging heroics for court intrigue, forbidden longing, and the kind of magic that demands emotional sacrifice. The world-building runs deep here: layered politics, competing noble houses, and a magic system tied to grief itself. If you loved the slow-burn tension of *The Priory of the Orange Tree* or the romantic ache of *The Night Circus*, this will pull you under. Fair warning: the pacing is deliberate, the stakes are personal, and you'll feel every tear shed into that well. For readers who want their fantasy drenched in atmosphere and longing.
