The Shadow Bride: A Marriage to the Lord of Desire

To end a war between realms, Princess Elara is given to the Lord of Shadows a fae whose touch can unravel light itself. His world is one of twilight and silence, where every promise binds and every secret bleeds power.

Bound by duty, Elara steps into a marriage meant for peace and finds something far more complex. Her husband isn’t the monster whispered about in mortal halls. Beneath his calm cruelty lies a man haunted by an ancient curse a hunger that feeds on longing, on her defiance, on every breath they share. When she dares to reach past the myth, the space between them burns into something neither can control.

But love in the shadows always comes with a cost. As magic stirs and kingdoms fracture, Elara must choose: protect her people or risk everything for the one who could destroy her.

In the realm where desire is power, can her heart survive the dark it craves?

***

Step into Courts of Desire and Shadow where every love story is its own perilous legend.

In the hidden world of the fae, passion cuts as deep as power. Behind walls of shadow and fire, pacts are sealed with blood, crowns bear lethal curses, and desire burns hotter than any spell. Each tale reveals a love that risks kingdoms and rewrites destiny, threading together betrayal, temptation, and magic that clings to the skin like smoke. From ruthless princes to cursed brides, from shadowed rulers to silver-eyed prophets, one truth rules their realm nothing’s more dangerous, or more tempting, than desire.
