In the shadowed kingdom of Elowyn, Princess Astra is a flame caged in glass-noble and sharp-tongued. Her bloodline is power. Her future is political. Her heart? Supposed to be silent.
Then comes Dorian-a cold, mysterious knight from the banished House of Shadows, cloaked in secrets and scarred by betrayal. Sworn to serve her court. Bound by a forbidden past. The moment their eyes meet, the Veil awakens-a cursed bond that ties their dreams, desires, and souls.
What begins as stolen glances becomes a dangerous entanglement. But when Astra discovers the truth about her family's crimes-and the betrayal that could start a war-she's torn between the kingdom she was born to protect and the man she was never meant to love.
Enemies surround them. Loyalty is fragile. And love might be the most dangerous rebellion of all.
