Long ago, a sentient crystal called Soryath En'Kael shattered itself into six pieces, each one sinking into the earth and twisting the world into realms of fire, ice, gold, storm, root, and tide.
Now, the shards are waking.
Princess Syra Vyrflame was born with a flame the color of ghosts-violet, flickering, weak. In a family where fire is divine right and power, she is an embarrassment. Her father wants peace. Her mother wants control. And her flame refuses to burn like theirs.
But when her father is poisoned and her mother's schemes unravel, Syra discovers the truth: her violet flame isn't broken. It's forgotten. And it may be the key to uniting-or destroying-the six shattered realms.
Across the world, other heirs are rising:
Rhysara, a widowed queen ruling a desert empire built on blood contracts and golden lies.
Aenyra, a kidnapped princess left for dead, now returned to reclaim her drowned throne.οΏΌ
Serenya, a girl made of ice who must destroy the mother she loves to save the world.
The shards are stirring. The old god dreams. And four queens will decide whether the world reunites-or burns.
Magic. Betrayal. Queens forged in fire and frost.
Eliana Snow is a sweet, innocent young woman who's about to inherit the family fortune at age 21.
Right now her parents' company, bank accounts, and estates are managed by the court-appointed trustee - Harvey Snow, an uncle who sincerely hates her. The feeling is mutual. Harvey is capable of anything. Even murder.
The plot starts exactly six months before Eliana's 21st birthday. It's the moment when harassment becomes too much to handle.
Eliana out of sheer desperation asks the mafia boss Rafael Vincenti for protection and to her surprise she receives a marriage proposal from him. At first, their relationship begins as a passionless business deal but it slowly grows into something more.
