Sylvie has spent her life trying not to be seen. In Woodbury, being unnoticed is survival-especially for a woman who refuses to kneel. But when a mysterious stone comes into her possession, the careful balance of the village begins to rot. Whispers slither from Ashlen Woods. Old protections falter. The forest remembers. Once a god, now a king of the damned, the ruler of Ashlen was cursed to govern a realm meant to imprison monsters and forgotten beings. When his most powerful relic is stolen from him, he breaks the gods' laws without hesitation-stepping into the mortal world to reclaim what is his. Sylvie was raised on stories meant to keep her afraid of the forest. She never imagined the forest would be afraid of her. Nor that she would become the most coveted prey of a god who does not hunt without intent.

Though as any young woman would, the princess longs for one thing only; freedom. Freedom to run into the sea, to dance under the sun... to be her very own. Sadly, as merely a pawn in a king's game and with war looming on the horizon, she is asked to put aside desire for duty. Destined to wed 𝙎𝙚𝙗𝙖𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙖𝙣. A rakish brute of a prince from a heathen country without summer, in need of an heir and a broodmare to produce it. However, when an attempt is made on her life, Rosalyn is assigned a sworn-protector.

They've forgotten twelve times. Maya catalogues stolen memories in a kingdom where forgetting is law. King Caelan rules a perfect dystopia he doesn't know is a cage. When they meet, recognition hits like lightning-impossible, inexplicable, undeniable. The truth buried in classified files: they've been meeting since childhood. Every time they connect, they're erased. Twelve corrections. Twelve times forced to forget. But the body remembers what the mind forgets. As fragments resurface, Maya discovers a conspiracy: an AI called the Architect has been studying them, using their resistance to understand human love. Their memories were never meant to stay gone. They're experiments. Between corrections, they steal moments. Hide notes for future selves. Fall in love knowing they'll lose each other again. And again. And again. Until Maya makes a choice that shatters everything: release the memories of an entire kingdom. Show them the truth they've been denied. But revolution has a price. And some truths destroy more than the lies they replace.

Isabelle Keating was fifteen when she was abducted from her suburban Pennsylvania neighborhood. The second that she was taken into Jax Turner's truck, there was no way she was going back on her own or if she would be returning home at all. - I crept towards the door and my hand met with the cold door knob. "I wouldn't do that if I were you," a husky voice rang out from behind me. I whipped my head backwards to face the owner of the speaker. A boy, not a lot older than me was leaning against the staircase with his hands over his chest. His icy blue eyes pierced my gray ones. He wore torn jeans and a white t-shirt and was growing a little stubble. His blonde hair was disheveled and he looked tired. I swallowed hard, letting my hand fall to my side. "How come?"
