The Last Legacy
by Adrienne Young
Book 3 in The World of the Narrows
Adrienne Young fans get more of the Narrows without needing to have read Fable first - this stands alone. The pull is family power games and a forbidden, slow-build romance with the silversmith, not heat. If you want a tight YA fantasy with criminal-merchant intrigue and a heroine who keeps choosing her own ambition, this lands.
