Copperstitched - by Kalie Reid (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

A lush friends-to-lovers romantasy about a woman who, after her father is poisoned, must unravel the secrets of their guild and join forces with her childhood friend to save him.

In a glittering world of Guilds fueled by magic and loyalty, selling secrets is one way to get ahead--or lose your life.

Saskia van Beek has spent her whole life preparing to take on her father's role as Guildmaster of the Cartographer's Guild, a step that has come sooner than she expected after a mysterious illness left her father bedridden. The Cartographer's Guild is one of many magical guilds operating in secret and using rendered copper made by the notoriously tight-lipped Coppersmiths to craft their wares.

When the Coppersmiths offer Saskia an antidote for her father in exchange for her Guild's most guarded secret, she must unravel her father's involvement with the shadowy group. With only her distractingly charming childhood friend Nicholas to help, Saskia sets off to find the antidote before the clock runs out on her father's life--or before the Coppersmiths decide she must take up more than just the title of Guildmaster to atone for her father's sins.
