About this book

When Casia marches north to seek the elves' ancient power, she finds herself navigating a glittering court of dangerous magic and deadly politics—all while carrying a curse that grows heavier by the day. Meanwhile, Elander fights to hold onto his fading divinity and the bond that ties him to her, determined never to lose her again despite the cost to himself. As war closes in from all sides and secrets unravel, the line between devotion and destruction blurs in ways neither of them could have predicted. This is epic fantasy romance with high stakes, complex magic, and a love that might just save—or doom—them both.

Dark fae romance with haunting orchestral elements and intense emotional tension. Blend ethereal indie vocals with gothic atmospheres—think Florence + The Machine, Hozier, and Eerie Wloomp. Capture forbidden devotion, magic's weight, and the dangerous pull between two souls facing destruction.
