Stars and Shadows

Destiny or desire:where does your allegiance lie? I am told my union to the crowned prince will determine the fate of the kingdom, but it isn't my betrothed who haunts my dreams. It's the half-breed prince who stands at his side. He is darkness and sin, and when he whispers promises of wickedness in my ear, I crave a man who I can't have. Every thought I have is treasonous. The way my hands ache to touch him deceitful. Even my dreams make me a traitor to the kingdom I am sworn to protect. But when the kingdom is attacked, I am forced to make choices I'm not prepared for. Our lies and deception are entangled in the shadows and stars, and as they unravel so shall my fate. Betray a kingdom or betray my heart. A Kingdom of Stars and Shadows is book one in the Stars and Shadows series, and it ends in a cliffhanger.

My fate is bonded to two princes-one born of blood, the other of power-but my trust lies in neither. My skin is cursed by the stars, my fate damned by desire. When the dark prince offers me a bargain that will save his people and my life, the cruel and intoxicating male gives me no choice. Our union is his revenge, and I am his sacrifice. His lies are unforgivable. His wicked touch still bathes me in sin. He is my mate, and he is tortured by a curse to protect his people from his own family. I can now see him for exactly who he is. So why can't I get his alluring touch out of my head? I am the key to saving his kingdom, but he alone has the power to ruin me.

I entered into a bargain-choosing my mate over my freedom. But I underestimated the crowned prince who took me. His touch like venom. His vengeance lethal. He craves a power I no longer hold, and he'll sacrifice every part of me until he gets it. But I don't belong to him. I belong to his brother. His brother who will come for me, consequences be damned. My fate is entangled between two princes-one who craves my power, the other who covets me-and I have more to lose than I ever imagined. War rages in a game between queens, and I have become their pawn. But I will fight for my life, for my mate, and he will raze kingdoms to get me back.
