[PRE-ORDER] Death (Towerfall, #4) by Kristin Cast

Release Date: 10/13/2026

forced proximity • protective hero • portal romance • enchanted kingdom

In a world built on illusion, the truth can be deadly. Juniper Chase has perfected the art of being whatever everyone needs her to be, especially around Beckett Davenport, her best friend's older brother and the one man she has spent years trying not to want.

When a magical tarot card transports Juniper and Beckett to the enchanted Kingdom of Swords, Juniper is mistaken for the kingdom's future queen. Suddenly surrounded by magic, secrets, and a prince with a carefully crafted charm, she finds herself playing a role far more dangerous than anything she has ever imagined.

The Vibe

Juniper is intuitive, adaptable, and exceptionally good at reading the room. In the Kingdom of Swords, that instinct becomes something much more powerful. As she navigates an unfamiliar world, she must learn which truths to trust and which appearances are carefully constructed illusions.

Beckett has always been the man Juniper should not want. Now that they are stranded together, his role as her protector brings them into closer quarters and gives the years of carefully suppressed attraction a dangerous new intensity.

With an enchanted kingdom, tarot-inspired magic, portal fantasy, simmering chemistry, and a fiercely protective hero, Death is a spicy light romantasy for readers who love slow-burn tension and modern women swept into magical worlds.
