About this listen
As a sculptress, Ravenna Maffei has always shaped beauty from stone, but she has a terrible secret. Desperate to save her brother, she enters a competition hosted by Florence's most feared immortal family, revealing a dark power in a city where magic is forbidden.
Now a captive in the cutthroat city, Ravenna is forced into a dangerous task where failure means certain death at the hands of Saturnino dei Luni, the immortal family's mesmerizing but merciless heir. But as he draws her closer, Ravenna realizes the true threat lies beyond Florence's walls.
The Pope's war against magic is closing in, and Ravenna is no longer just a prisoner but a prize to be claimed. As trusting the wrong person becomes lethal, Ravenna must survive the treacherous line between the pope's obsession and the seductive immortal who might be the end of her ― or surrender her power to a city on the brink of war.©2026 Isabel Ibañez
Critic reviews
A breathtaking blend of intricate magic, riveting intrigue, and hypnotic romance, in a lush historical setting that flares to life on every page. I never wanted to leave the glimmering, immortally enchanting world of Graceless Heart
A tour de force of historical fantasy. This fierce, romantic, wonderful book gripped my imagination and made my heart race at each turn. With an artist's eye for beautiful detail, Isabel Ibanez has created a gorgeous, intricate world peopled with fascinating characters. It's nothing short of compelling. Ibanez is at the height of her talent here
In her adult debut, Ibañez delivers a fantasy teeming with political schemes, scandalous romance, and clever twists that make it a true homage to its Renaissance setting. Like flies to a web, readers will find themselves pulled into a world of tangling ambitions, ruthless power grabs, and fate-altering secrets. This one's a must-read for 2025
A sumptuous and intoxicating standalone from the singularly swoonworthy imagination of Isabel Ibañez. Ibañez deftly sculpts a tale of magic, menace and mystery amidst the glittering backdrop of Renaissance Italy. Every page is a feast for one's daydreams
Lush, evocative, and utterly enthralling - this is historical fantasy at its finest. With prose as sharp as a sculptor's chisel, a romance that burns slow and deep, and a world brimming with political intrigue and whispered magic, this book will carve itself into your heart and never let go
If you've been curious about fantasy literature but never tempted to try it, this sumptuous, Renaissance-set tale may be the perfect way in... a beautifully atmospheric journey through art, power and desire
Once again, Ibañez has delivered a richly detailed historical fantasy that's full of slow-burn romance, simmering danger, fragile alliances and devious power plays
