Eirisse Virelle has always known that she was born for something greater than the life she's living-something both beautiful and tragic. Raised in the shadows of her family's fallen grace, she is a prisoner of the past, haunted by a name too noble for the life she now leads. With each passing day, she hides behind silk and lace, hiding the yearning in her heart. She is not meant for this world-but the world does not know that yet.
When Zephyr Aetheren, a boy born of the wind and sky, comes crashing into her life, the weight of her curse grows heavier. He is everything Eirisse is not: free, wild, untamed. A rogue with a secret past and a heart too vast for a single soul to carry.
Drawn together by a force neither can explain, Eirisse and Zephyr must navigate a world built on lies, deception, and the heavy burden of fate. With every stolen moment, they come closer to unraveling the secrets that bind them-and the tragic love they cannot deny. But even as their hearts entwine, the cost of their love becomes clearer: The more they defy the rules of destiny, the more the world around them begins to shatter.
A love written in the stars, but destined to burn.
As secrets unfold and pasts collide, the storm that Eirisse and Zephyr have started may not be one they can survive.
