Crown of Smoke and Silver

"I thought the devil couldn't reach me, but I was wrong. He waited until I burned everything that could've saved me."

Three years after the fire that destroyed her family and her name, Elara Vayne lives in exile on the edge of the Fae Wilds - a haunted forest where no mortal dares to tread. Branded a traitor, cursed by her own magic, she has learned to survive alone, far from the cruel beauty of the fae courts.

Until one storm-swept night, a wounded fae washes up in her river - a man of silver eyes and ruined armor, carrying secrets older than the realm itself. When Elara saves his life, she forges a bond she doesn't understand - one written in ancient power and blood.

Now bound to Kael of the Autumn Court, a fallen fae accused of treason, Elara is drawn into a world of glittering deception, dark bargains, and forbidden desire. The courts are shifting, ancient magic is stirring, and the devil who once whispered to her through fire may not have been a metaphor after all.

To save herself - and the world she once burned - Elara must face the truth about her magic, her past, and the inferno she carries in her heart.

In a realm where beauty hides cruelty and love can ruin kingdoms, Elara will learn that some flames never die...
they only change their crown.
