Synopsis
The chained prince haunting her dreams isn’t a nightmare. He’s real—and fate won’t let either of them go. Fae mage Araya Starwind has survived the New Dominion’s brutal rule by keeping her head down and her magic leashed. To stay safe, she binds herself to a powerful human mage—Jaxon Shaw—whose protection comes at a steep and controlling cost. But when the fae male from her dreams turns out to be the missing prince, Araya is drawn into a conflict she never asked for—and a connection she can’t escape. Now, she’s caught between two impossible choices: obey the laws that keep her caged, or risk everything for a freedom she never believed in. A dark fae romantasy full of forbidden magic, twisted loyalties, and slow-burning tension. Perfect for fans of ACOTAR, The Prison Healer, and From Blood and Ash.
