Description

The ember-magic inside her was never meant to awaken — and certainly not in a girl who wants nothing to do with the crown. When a dying kingdom demands a savior, she becomes the unwilling bearer of a power feared by every court. Hunted by rival factions and bound by a fate she cannot refuse, she is forced into a fragile alliance with an enemy prince whose past burns as fiercely as her own.

As ancient creatures stir and long-buried secrets rise, her power grows beyond anything the realm has seen. But the fire that could save a crown may also destroy it. Their forbidden bond threatens to upend alliances, ignite war, and unravel the truth behind the fallen queen whose shadow still rules the land.

To save the realm, she must embrace the magic that terrifies her — even if it means becoming the very weapon fate tried to hide.
