Terror at the Gates by Scarlett St Clair

The first in an all-new fantasy romance series from #1 New York Times bestselling author Scarlett St. Clair. In this biting, feminist retelling of Lilith's story, Lilith will rise from the ashes of her former life to destroy the ancient power that stole everything she loves. *** She is the beginning and the end. She is peace and chaos. She is terror knocking at the gates. Estranged from her powerful family, Lilith Leviathan finds refuge in Nineveh, a district in the city of Eden devoted to sin. There, she uses her magic to steal for a living, attracting the attention of the five governing families and the church, which expects women to remain pious and silent. When Lilith comes into possession of a beautiful blade, she thinks all her worries are over…until her usual buyer dies while inspecting it. Frantic, Lilith turns to the only man who can help her: Zahariev, head of the Zareth family and ruler of Nineveh. His currency is information, and his power is extortion, though he's always had a soft spot for Lilith. But when the dagger appears, he isn't sure he can protect her from what's to come. Together, they embark on a mission to discover the true power running their world. As their lives intertwine, Lilith realises Zahariev is more than just a friend, but their devotion to each other is a threat – to the truth, to the church, and to those who want to tear it all down. A lush friends to lovers romance full of devilish intrigue, Terror at the Gates begins the Blood of Lilith series – a must-read for dark fantasy fans and readers of the Hades x Persephone Saga.
