A reluctant heir. A dying sun. A forbidden love. And a vow that could change everything.
As heir to the Sun Kingdom, Sarina Veyloren knows her duty is to one day wear the crown. She just never expected that day to come so soon.
Haunted by a secret she has spent years hiding and visions she can’t control, Sarina has always been more comfortable at her father’s side than in the spotlight herself.
Then she meets Morgan Hale.
A charming naval captain with no interest in titles or court politics, Morgan sees beyond the dutiful princess to the woman beneath the crown. With him, Sarina begins to imagine a life she never thought she could have—until a violent coup tears everything apart.
Her parents are dead. Her kingdom has fallen. The sacred artifacts protecting the realm have vanished. The sun itself is beginning to die, and the man she thought she could trust has betrayed her.
Forced into hiding with her sisters, Sarina must uncover the secrets her father left behind and find the artifacts before the ruthless Shadow King plunges their world into permanent darkness. But to succeed, she must face her deepest fears and become the leader she never believed she could be.
As ancient secrets surface and time begins to run out, Sarina must choose between the future she longs for and the kingdom she was born to protect.
Because saving the Sun Kingdom may require more than courage.
It may cost her everything she loves.
