✨✨✨ I gasped when my publisher first showed it to me! Here are both covers, side-by-side:

Here’s what it’s about:

The stakes are even higher in this epic, romantic conclusion to the Crimson Moth duology.

A WITCH...
Rune Winters is on the run. Ever since the boy she loved, Gideon Sharpe, revealed who she was and delivered her into enemy hands, everyone wants her dead. If Rune hopes to survive, she must ally herself with the cruel and dangerous Cressida Roseblood, who’s planning to take back the Republic and reinstate a Reign of Witches—something Cressida needs Rune to accomplish.

A WITCH HUNTER...
Apparently it wasn’t enough for Rune to deceive Gideon; she’s now betrayed him by allying herself with the witch who made his life a living hell. Gideon won’t allow the Republic to fall to the witches and be plunged back into the nightmares of the past. In order to protect this new world he fought for, every last witch must die—especially Rune Winters.

AN IMPOSSIBLE CHOICE...
When Rune makes Gideon an offer he can’t refuse, the two must pair up to accomplish dangerous goals. The more they’re forced into each other’s company, the more Gideon realizes the feelings he had for Rune aren’t as dead and buried as he thought. And now he’s faced with a terrible choice: sacrifice the girl he loves to stop a monster taking back power, or let Rune live and watch the world he fought so hard for burn.

In Kristen Ciccarelli's Rebel Witch, the exciting conclusion to The Crimson Moth duology, love has never been so deadly.

Conveniently, Barnes & Noble is currently having its bi-annual preorder sale, which means members get REBEL WITCH for 25% off if they preorder before Saturday.

Canadian friends: you can preorder REBEL WITCH from Indigo Chapters or your local indie.

UK and international friends: there will be a cover reveal for the UK/international cover too. So stay tuned for that.

A quick note from me:

If you’ve read Heartless Hunter, you’ll know I left readers hanging a little. 😅 The ending brought betrayal, death, the return of a villain, and most of all, the separation of our two protagonists.

Rebel Witch picks up right where Heartless Hunter leaves off, with Rune and Gideon on opposite sides of a brewing war armed with even more reasons to hate each other. The stakes are raised, new (dangerous) alliances are forged, professions of love are made, and someone important dies. 😬

Rebel Witch was nothing but fun to write—even more fun than writing Heartless Hunter, if that’s possible. It’s fast paced, adventure-packed, and full of romantic angst. So if you enjoyed the first book, I think you’ll enjoy this one too (you might even enjoy it more).

Until next time,

Kristen
