She was raised to fear his darkness. He was taught to distrust her light. Together, they'll learn that some bonds are stronger than ancient curses.
When ancient enemies unite against a darker threat, their forbidden love becomes the magic needed to heal a sundered realm.
For centuries, the Silver Flame Court and Shadow Court have stood divided by The Veil—a magical barrier that maintains uneasy peace between light and darkness. Lady Elowen, Guardian of The Veil and Silver Flame princess, has been raised to distrust the shadow fae and their "corrupting" magic. Prince Kaelen, heir to the Shadow Court, views the Silver Flame as arrogant oppressors who hoard resources while his people suffer.
When The Veil begins mysteriously weakening, both are sent to investigate—only to discover each other as the suspected enemy. But the fractures in reality reveal a far greater threat: the Ancient Ones, primordial entities that The Veil was created to contain, are stirring in their prison. Worse, conspirators from both courts are working together to destroy The Veil completely, believing they can control the chaos that follows.
Forced into an unlikely alliance, Elowen and Kaelen must overcome centuries of prejudice and mistrust. As they uncover the truth about their shared history—that their courts were once united before a great sundering—they discover that their combined magic creates something unprecedented: a power that can heal what fear has broken.
But falling in love with the enemy comes at a price, and saving Eldrath may cost them everything they've ever known.
A sweeping romantasy of enemies-to-lovers, political intrigue, and the magic that binds two hearts and two realms together.
