Overview

The price of peace is my freedom.

I grew up with Elsin the Witch Queen haunting my nightmares.

Nine years ago she gave my mother a terrible choice. She threatened our land with a terrible curse that would destroy us all. The only way to avoid this fate: me, her daughter, to be delivered to her on my twentieth birthday. And Elsin makes no secret of the terrible fate she plans for me.

My mother refuses, insisting I grow up knowing nothing of this demand. She teaches me instead that Elsin the Witch Queen is pure evil, a terror to be feared.

A few months after I turn twenty a terrible Sickness comes to my beloved Brightstar Castle. When it strikes my brother, the young King, I learn the truth about what Elsin wants.

To save my brother and the realm I love, I must deliver myself into the clutches of a woman I consider evil: a monster. A woman who’s twisted story I’ve obsessed over my entire life.

But is the story I’ve been told about Elsin the Witch Queen the truth?

A fairytale-inspired dark sapphic romance with enemies to lovers, lots of spice and dark scenes.
