"fate is coming, he's closer than you think" Half Illyrian, half high fae. Lyra Carminis has always felt like an outsider at the prestigious Winter Court. Living for her family and trapped in a loveless engagement, she is convinced her fate is sealed. Until one night the stars realign; the High Lord of the Spring Court is her salvation and damnation. On a drunken impulse at High Lady, Viviane's coronation, one of the first celebrations since the war with Hybern. Their lives become intertwined with politics, broken hearts, breaking down walls and healing wounds deep under the skin. Exiled to the barren Spring Court, Lyra must regain her family's honour engaged to the High Lord, but his vulgar personality makes him hard to like. Lyra will face the truth to the beast within the golden haired fae, whilst facing her own battles.
