The alliance was never meant to last.
When a fire-wielding princess is bound by ancient magic to the shadow-born heir of a rival kingdom, the treaty is supposed to stabilize a collapsing world. Instead, it exposes the truth: both thrones would rather see their heirs dead than united.
Assassins strike from within. Loyalties fracture. And the Veil separating their realms begins to tear in ways no single power can repair.
Forced into proximity by a bond that shares pain, power, and emotion, enemies become reluctant allies—and then something far more dangerous. Fire and shadow were never meant to merge, yet together they can seal the fractures threatening to destroy everything.
But every tear they mend binds them closer, and every secret revealed makes returning to their old lives impossible.
Ashes Between Crowns is a dark epic fantasy of political betrayal, forbidden magic, and a bond forged under fire—where survival may demand loyalty to each other over the crowns that raised them.
