About this ebook

With the intrigue of The Cruel Prince and the romance of The Selection comes a page-turning fantasy about a girl forced into servitude in an enemy kingdom.

“An immersive romantasy . . . Enemies-to-lovers tropes get the royal treatment [with] smoldering tension.” —Publishers Weekly


Elysia of Miral never thought she’d set foot in Tannic. After a brutal rebellion that claimed the lives of both her father and Tannic’s king, Elysia has become a living symbol of a fragile truce. But she knows the truth: She’s been handed over as a veritable hostage, trapped in a court where everyone blames her for their king’s death.

Forced into servitude, Elysia despises her role almost as much as the men who now surround her: Daxon, the brooding heir, determined to hate her; Pike, the flirtatious second-born, who pushes her buttons with reckless charm; and the two youngest brothers, Caden and Silas.

But soon loyalty and desire collide, and Elysia finds herself caught in a forbidden romance with the last person she ever expected to capture her heart. Will falling for the enemy prove to be a mistake that she pays for with her life?
