When Elara breaks into the Fae King's forbidden garden to steal a Moonpetal and save her dying sister, she expects to face death. Instead, she collides with Prince Theron, the king's lethally beautiful nephew and commander of the Shadow Host. The moment her skin grazes his, an ancient magic erupts—the Soul-Mark, a fated bond prophesied to end the tyrant king's reign. Now they're chained together by a relentless ache that punishes distance, and the Wild Hunt is closing in.
Theron is cold, merciless, and desperate to sever the mark before it destroys them both. But the more they're forced into proximity—eluding the Hunt, navigating treacherous faerie woods, and fighting a magnetic, torturous pull—their animosity melts into a slow-burn passion neither can deny. He's a villain prince who's never known love; she's a stubborn human willing to risk everything for family. When he sacrifices himself to the Hunt so she can escape, Elara must seek the Oracle, who reveals the devastating truth: the bond cannot be broken. It can only be completed—with a willing, claiming kiss that will shatter the king's power, free the realm, and exile them both to the grey in-between forever.
A spicy, heart-wrenching romantasy brimming with fated mates, forced proximity, a dark fae prince who falls first, touch-her-and-die protectiveness, and an epic enemies-to-lovers romance. Perfect for fans of Jennifer L. Armentrout, Raven Kennedy, and Carissa Broadbent. How much would you sacrifice to destroy a kingdom and claim your fated mate? Listen now and burn with the ashes of a new dawn.
