Heartless Hunter: The Crimson Moth: Book 1

Heartless Hunter by Kristen Ciccarelli is the first book in The Crimson Moth duology, a romantic fantasy story of enemies turned lovers between a witch and a witch hunter.

After a bloody revolution, witches are hunted and forced into hiding. Rune must conceal her true identity—by day, she poses as a shallow young socialite, but by night, she becomes the Crimson Moth, a secret vigilante who rescues witches from persecution. When a mission goes wrong, Rune decides to mislead her enemies and gather information by seducing Gideon Sharpe, a ruthless witch hunter loyal to the regime—only to find herself falling for him.

Gideon despises Rune’s apparent vanity, but as he pretends to court her to expose the Crimson Moth, he discovers her wit, strength, and compassion—and begins to fall for her. Yet, he doesn’t realize that Rune may be the very enemy he’s been hunting all along.

A story filled with danger, secrets, and forbidden passion, Heartless Hunter is a tale where love between enemies could destroy them both.
