The Crimson Moth by Kristen Ciccarelli is a tense, twisty fantasy romance set after a bloody revolution, where hiding what you are can get you killed and falling for the enemy is the most dangerous mistake of all.

Rune has spent years pretending. By day she plays the role of a frivolous young socialite, all silk and smiles, the last person anyone would suspect. By night she becomes the Crimson Moth, a witch vigilante smuggling hunted witches to safety as their magic fades and the new regime tightens its grip.

When a rescue goes wrong, Rune needs information fast and a way to throw the witch hunters off her trail. Her solution is risky: she sets her sights on Gideon Sharpe, a notorious witch hunter loyal to the revolution, and starts courting him for access, for intel, for cover. Except Gideon is not as easy to fool as she hopes, and the pull between them is far too real.

Gideon despises everything Rune appears to represent, but when he suspects the Crimson Moth is using her family’s merchant ships to smuggle witches out of the republic, he decides to play her game and court her right back. The closer he gets, the more he sees the truth beneath her mask. And the more he starts to wonder if she’s the one he’s been hunting all along.
