Summary
In a world where the war is lost and dark forces have triumphed, Princess Briony Rosewood’s life is irrevocably changed. Her castle is overrun, her people face oppression or death, and Briony herself is stripped of her magic and freedom. Along with other survivors, she is sold at auction, and as Evermore’s princess, she commands the highest price.
Briony is purchased by Toven Hearst, a man from a family notorious for cruelty. Yet within the horrors of her captivity, hope and unexpected alliances emerge. In this darkly romantic tale, Briony must navigate a treacherous new world, discovering resilience, magic, and the possibility of love even in the most unlikely circumstances.
