Rusty Throat, Burning Heart (Copper & Ash #2) by Adam Bassett:
 
For a thousand years, The Old Town has stood as humanity’s last bastion—until now. Beyond the deadly mists and terrors of the maalkonis, and across foreign waters, lights flicker in the distance. There are other survivors.

Anna, a skilled engineer and self-taught mage, is among the first to make contact with these strangers beyond the veil. When she discovers that they’ve managed to keep the mists at bay through a mastery of magic, she seeks answers from their mage, Valentín. However, the magic he wields comes at a terrible price.

Anna’s copper machines represent an unexpected sense of freedom for both Valentín and future generations of mages. They present a future that he had thought impossible to reach. However, trust is hard-won and easily lost. Budding allies turn to bitter enemies as deep-rooted divisions within the realm rear their ugly head.

Rusty Throat, Burning Heart is a post-apocalyptic romantic fantasy that takes place ten years after the events of Copper Skin, Oaken Lungs. While it is recommended to read them in order, it is not required.
