Caught in a whirlwind of royal deceptions and dark secrets, I'm playing a dangerous game.
And the stakes? They're higher than ever.
My brother has always protected me, guarding me from those coveting my rare magic.
Now that I am old enough to get married, the risks around me intensify, magnifying the dangers I face. To keep me safe, my brother sends me to the Fae King of Goldhaven, so he can keep an eye on me.
Entangled in a web of secrets and forbidden magic, I find myself faking a relationship with my brother's best friend. He's the epitome of everything I should avoid—arrogant, dangerously alluring, and my only refuge in this chaos.
In the glittering courts of Goldhaven, I wear a mask of normalcy, playing the role Jace needs. But our fake relationship blurs into something real, something perilously close to love.
But as we navigate this new situation, a chilling truth emerges—something dark flows through my blood.
