A Kingdom of Venom and Vows

Gavril hauls Adara back into the Fae Kingdom to finish what their broken betrothal started. He wants the starblessed power she no longer carries, and he is prepared to destroy her getting it.

Her true mate is Gavril's own brother, Evren. He crosses kingdoms to reach her, and for the first time the story lets him speak for himself, his chapters running alongside Adara's own.

Caught between two princes, with the kingdom's queens maneuvering behind them, Adara stops waiting to be saved. She fights for her life, for Evren, and for a way out of the bargain that trapped her. Two books of denial give way to something closer to a warrior, and the fight she picks is her own.

A Kingdom of Venom and Vows closes the Stars and Shadows trilogy. It is a fae fantasy romance, heavy on spice and court politics, that spends its final volume on open war between kingdoms rather than palace intrigue alone.
