Kiss of Starlight

She’s spent her life obeying one rule: never look up. The night she breaks it, a boy made of starlight crashes into her forest—and the sky starts hunting.

Lyra Sorelle lives hidden in the Wyrdwood, guided by a star-shaped crystal pendant her dying mother left behind and whispers only she can hear. When Cassian wakes in a smoking crater—glowing, wounded, and stripped of memory—he remembers one impossible thing: her name.

His escape has a price. The Astral Court, celestial tyrants who decide which stars are allowed to shine, sends hunters to drag him back… and a silent weapon that can erase a soul by devouring its name. To keep Cassian alive—and keep herself from being unmade—Lyra must follow the pendant’s pull across cursed groves, living vaults, and fractured gates between realms, where memory can be stolen and light can become a chain.

But the deeper they run, the brighter Lyra burns. The pendant isn’t just a relic. It’s a key. And the starlight waking in her chest may be the only thing powerful enough to challenge the heavens—if she’s willing to remember who she is before the sky makes her forget.
