The throne is claimed in fire, and she’s the spark.
In the kingdom of Vesper—where winters stretch for a decade and power is bought in blood—Scarlett Scoria is the last unwilling heir to the Golden Throne. She has never craved power. Raised in the shadow of her ruthless brother, her battlefield has been the boxing ring, not the royal court.
But when a brutal new law binds her to a political marriage with a mysterious Viscount, Scarlett is thrust into a world of treachery, deception, and forbidden magic. As her ties to an ancient prophecy awaken, she must choose between the duty that shackles her and the desires that set her heart ablaze.
Enemies gather, secrets resurface, and shadows rise to devour everything she holds dear. To survive, Scarlett must forge unlikely alliances and confront the ghosts of her past—especially Kai, the man who once shattered her heart.
In a sweeping tale of love, power, and sacrifice, Scarlett will learn that destiny is not carved in the stars—it is forged by fire, blood, and choice.
