Marked by Shadows

Marked by Shadows

Four mates. One forbidden bloodline. One destiny that could destroy the world.

Elara Veyne has spent eighteen years believing she is ordinary.

Until the dead begin whispering her name.

On the night her mysterious powers awaken, four dangerously powerful men arrive at her doorstep-each bound to her by a connection older than kingdoms themselves.

Kael Draven, the ruthless Shadow Prince.

Ronan Vale, the fierce Wolf King.

Lucien Ashborne, the enigmatic Blood Mage.

And Aeron Thorne, the exiled Fae prince with secrets of his own.

They tell Elara she is their mate.

She refuses to believe them.

But when an ancient mark appears across her skin, Elara discovers that she isn't simply magical-she carries the bloodline of the First Queen, a woman whose power nearly destroyed the world centuries ago.

Now kingdoms are hunting her, ancient enemies are awakening, and the four men bound to her may be the only ones capable of keeping her alive.

But there is something they haven't told her.

Elara isn't the girl they've been searching for.

She's something far more dangerous.

And when the shadows finally come for their queen, Elara will have to decide whether to run from the power inside her...

or become the most feared woman the magical world has ever known.

Welcome to the Crown of Shadows.

Book One of a five-book why-choose fantasy romance series.
