She was born to be a weapon. The Cosmos intended her to be a miracle. Her father turned her into a ghost.
Kairi is the "Cosmic Blessing" of the Water Domain-a rare Cancerian soul capable of manipulating the very fabric of the elements. But to her father, the King of the Shoals, she is nothing more than a battery to fuel his empire. Kept in silence and bound by silver suppressors, Kairi has never known the touch of a hand that didn't want to use her.
That changes when she is "stolen" by an unlikely pair: Vane, the exiled Aquarius Prince with the soul of a poet and the power of the sky, and Silas, a lethal Scorpio Sentinel who was supposed to be her jailer but became her shadow.
As they flee into the depths of the Forbidden Nebula, Kairi's suppressed magic begins to wake up. But her power is tied to her heart, and for the first time, her heart is divided. When she is near Silas, her magic sparks with silver lightning; when she is near Vane, it blooms into rose-tinted steam. She doesn't understand these feelings, and her magic is reacting to a love she isn't even aware she has.
But the King is coming to reclaim his property. To save the men who taught her what it means to be human, Kairi will have to face a choice that the stars themselves find impossible:
Will she become the god her father demands, or the girl her heart desires? And can she survive a love that is powerful enough to restart a dying star?
