Capture one harmless fugitive. What could go wrong?

Nyssa Blacksea is eager to silence her doubters. As the only warrior in her guild without magick, she's forced to rely solely on her martial arts mastery, unwavering confidence, and charisma. When given the chance to hunt down a mysterious woman named Quinn and earn the coveted title of Ashcloak, Nyssa seizes the opportunity. Track down a fugitive? An easy task.

There's just one problem—Quinn isn't receptive to Nyssa's charms and refuses to go down without a fight. Dangerous secrets swirl around Quinn and a treacherous guild leader, rattling Nyssa's faith in the very system that raised her.

Though troubled by the sinking feeling she's not meant to survive the mission, Nyssa confronts the dangers awaiting her, clashing with pirates, assassins, and undead horrors. Duty pulls her in one direction, but a strange, undeniable spark of connection draws her towards Quinn. With only her heart and code of honor to guide her, Nyssa risks death to stay true to herself.

For listeners who love unique epic fantasy set against a semi-modern backdrop, featuring a sapphic, enemies-to-lovers, slow-burn romance. Unworthy will appeal to fans of Arcane, The Legend of Korra, and Gideon the Ninth.

I loved everything about this book! The world building was intricate and fascinating without going in too much detail and letting the reader discover it gradually. The characters were likable and complex. There is fun banter and chemistry. The relationships are built in a natural, believable way. There's sapphic romance, socially awkward flirting and a bit of spice... The plot has twists and turns all the way through. What's not to like?
The only thing I would add is more spice, but I still enjoyed it and can't wait to listen to the rest of the series!
