Vesselless - Cortney L. Winn
Nizzara has always been able to perceive spirits better than the average caster. When she enters a deadly tournament to end her betrothal, she's determined to win without succumbing to the addictive spirit magic she channels or taking a life in the duel ring.
Finding herself outmatched, Nizzara must face her fear of power and team up with Dagen - an enemy who is half-ghost and all charm - to survive the tournament.Dagen, the last King of Zarr, was killed by Nizzara's father ten years ago. Now a half-ghost - able to phase between his human and spirit form - he is stuck in another realm, hunting wretched souls.
When his keeper offers him a chance to reclaim his freedom in exchange for Nizzara's soul, Dagen takes the deal.There's only one catch: she must freely give it to him by the tournament's end or his own soul is forfeit.
