When He Lifts the Hammer

The God of Blades, Ian Gould, has traded his legendary past for obscurity—living quietly as an overlooked son-in-law. But peace ends when Lori Kurtz, a senior from Artisan Hall, descends to seize Highblade Manor's most valuable mine. Cornered and out of options, Highblade stakes everything on a forging duel. To protect the mine—and the family that scorns him—Ian must finally break his silence, unveil his true mastery, and reclaim the name feared across the realm.
