Daggermouth is the viral sensation by successful indie author H. M. Wolfe. A gut-wrenching, all-consuming, dark dystopian romance – perfect for fans of The Hunger Games, The Handmaid’s Tale and Conform.
‘Daggermouth had me in a chokehold! Shadera Kael is bound to be your next favourite morally grey heroine. Impossible stakes, sizzling writing and plot twists you’ll never see coming . . . this book has everything you want in a dark dystopian’ – Sable Sorensen, USA Today bestselling author of Dire Bound
Mercy no longer exists.
New Found Haven is carved into rings of privilege and poverty, ruled by the masked elite who will do whatever it takes to hold onto power.
Obedience is demanded.
Greyson Serel has spent his life caught between two worlds. Publicly, he’s the flawless heir to the presidency. Privately, he’s entangled in secrets that could topple the regime. But when he’s forced into a political marriage meant to bind him tighter to the government’s brutal laws, he finds himself shackled to a bride who is as lethal as she is unwilling.
Rebellion is crushed.
Shadera Kael is a mercenary raised to kill, not to wed. Yet when her bullet misses its mark, survival leaves her bound to the very man she was sent to eliminate. Trapped inside the corrupt Heart, the centre of the city, she becomes both prisoner and wife, her every step watched, her every move tested.
Nothing is what it seems.
Their union is no love story – it’s a battlefield. As secrets come to light and betrayals fester within the walls of power, Greyson and Shadera must decide between annihilating one another or burning the city to the ground together.
The Heart consumes.
In a world where passion incites rebellion and loyalty is paid for in blood, their forced bond may be the spark that ignites a revolution, because . . .
Love outside of your ring is a death sentence.

“For readers craving a thrilling and beautifully dark enemies to lovers romance set in a world as resilient as the characters. Daggermouth is one of the best dystopian romances I've ever read and I'm eagerly awaiting the second book”Clio Evans, author of Broken Beginnings
“Wolfe’s writing reads like a song full of motivation and pure feminine rage. A dystopian, at its heart, is meant to reflect the atrocities of our real world. Daggermouth does this and more, urging you to sit back and think. Hope is found in the darkest places, and these are the sort of stories we turn to when we feel like we can’t keep going. If you pick up one more book this year, it should be this one”Mikayla D Hornedo, author of Blood & Brujas
“Daggermouth is intensely thought-provoking, pushing you to view the world with healthy skepticism while examining your own beliefs and reality. Its layered, timely plot and raw romances make for a gripping read, perfect for fans of authentic antiheroes. A must-read!”Nelle Nikole, author of Rising
“Compulsive, compelling and pacy, Daggermouth had – still has – me in a chokehold. I loved this book. The characters and plot twists will stay with you long after the final page”Saoirse Morrigan
