In the opulent kingdom of Lysandra, where marble palaces rise above sacred waterfalls and crowns are heavier than swords, Princess Selene is bound by duty and bloodline. Trained in silence to obey and wed Prince Thalos-a political match forged by her father's will-Selene finds herself torn between the life carved for her and the one her heart yearns for.
Her heart belongs to Sir Cassian, a fiercely loyal knight sworn to protect her, yet forbidden to love her. Their stolen moments beneath moonlit grottos and sacred waterfalls awaken a dangerous truth: they cannot live without each other. But in a court of whispered betrayal and royal spies, even love can be a death sentence.
When King Makarion discovers their secret bond, he issues an ultimatum-Selene must obey and marry Thalos, or watch Cassian fall by royal decree. The lovers make a fateful choice: to bind themselves in secret beneath the gods, risking everything-power, position, and their lives-for a love that defies law and legacy.
As tension rises and shadows gather at court, a traitor lurks among them, threatening to expose their vow to the crown. With an unwanted wedding looming and Cassian marked for ruin, Selene must decide if she will break free from her royal cage-or let love be buried beneath the throne.

Veil of the Hallow Heart
In the moonlit kingdom of Lunaris, emotions are buried beneath layers of silence and duty. Among its pale spires and silver gardens lives Princess Lirael Nocturne, the heir to a throne sculpted from ice and expectation. Born with a face that never smiles and a heart that has never stirred, she is the perfect daughter of a kingdom that fears feeling. Princes from every corner of the continent come to win her hand-but none can melt her cold indifference. For Lirael, love is a word spoken often but never understood. She once asked her mother what happiness felt like. The answer never came. But when two new royal guards arrive-young men from a distant village-and a soft-spoken maid with warm hands is assigned to serve her, the silent world Lirael has always known begins to tremble. Among them is Caelan Thorne, a loyal guard whose heart belongs to another-his childhood friend Selene, now the princess's maid. Selene, however, has eyes only for someone else: Rowan, the charming second guard who doesn't know how much she's always meant to her. And in the quiet spaces between duty and longing, Lirael begins to feel something unfamiliar. Something warm. Something painful. Something that just might be love.Complete
