There's an ancient war between the Fates, and a girl whose magic could end it all. But there's also another girl - destined to die for love.
Sophie Lou is to marry the youngest prince of Caladria, the one whose kiss is rumoured to kill. King Pandemonium demands it.
But Sophie has little interest in being commanded by kings or having any relational ties in the first place. Luckily, neither does the prince.
Reluctantly, the two band together with Sophie's sister Charlie and friends to find the Scissors of Death - the key to stopping Atropos, their engagement, and a foreboding prophecy from coming true. Yet the more time Sophie spends with the prince, the more she feels a pull toward him-one that, if acted upon, will surely kill her.
Meanwhile, Charlie's newfound powers are causing a strain on her own relationship, making her see the one who got away in a whole new light.
Navigating the murky waters of hurt and betrayal, mysterious deaths and visions, the daughters of Life must face their fears and decide for themselves whether some things are worth holding on to or if it's time to cut the thread.
But Death always stays two steps ahead...
A slow burn romantasy novel riddled with unexpected twists, Scissors of Death ups the stakes from Spindle of Life, keeping you glued to the pages from beginning to end.
