A Saint for the Moth Queen

A holy assassin desperate for salvation. A moth queen fighting for her people. A truth that will burn their world to the ground.

Eira Vale is a consecrated saint, wielding a divine magic that is slowly, agonizingly burning her alive. Her only hope for a cure lies in the darkest depths beneath the city. Armed with a sunsteel knife and a holy mandate, Eiras mission is simple: descend into the ruins, slaughter the monstrous Queen of the Nocthyr, and bring back her heart.

But the seven-foot, four-armed creature waiting in the dark is not the mindless beast the Temple promised.

When a catastrophic cave-in traps them beneath forty feet of cathedral rubble, Eiras survival suddenly rests in the four hands of the very monster she was sent to kill. Forced to navigate the perilous subterranean depths together, Eira uncovers a horrifying reality. The Radiant Synods power is built on the caged suffering of Veyras people—and the holy fire destroying Eiras own nerves was stolen from the queens bloodline.

As the lines between enemy and protector blur, the lethal tension between the dying saint and the formidable moth queen ignites into an undeniable, forbidden attraction. With the city above on the brink of collapse and a hollow god stirring in the deep, Eira faces a devastating choice.

She can fulfill her sacred oath and save her own life—or betray everything she knows to stand beside the moth queen.

A Saint for the Moth Queen is a dark, atmospheric sapphic fantasy perfect for readers who crave fierce enemies-to-lovers tension, monster romance, forced proximity, and striking back against a corrupt holy order.
