We Hunt the Flame by Hafsah Faizal

Before leaving the deserts of Demenhur to the eternal winter, the country was ruled by 6 sisters while the land of Aravistan was full of magic. After the sisters were defeated by the Lion of the Night and left the magical Aravistan, a cursed forest condemned the entire country to an endless winter and drought. Zafira bint Iskandar, who had no choice but to enter the cursed forest for her family and people, was a hunter who had to hide her identity. When the Silver Witch visits her and tells her that there is a way to bring magic back to Aravistana, her long-time curiosity towards magic tells her that she must embark on this adventure, which is more dangerous and terrifying than Arz. But Zafira is not the only one invited to this adventure. The Prince of Death, whom all aravistan fears and which is considered a death sentence for seeing him, is also invited to this adventure. But his purpose is not to bring back magic, but to kill the Hunter. This story tells a desert story long before Alaadin found the magical lamp.
