The Crowned Fugitive

A forbidden power. An impossible choice. A love that could shatter a kingdom.

Nesrin is a galdara-a rare being, she was uniquely born with the power of both Elemental and Psyche magic. What should have been a gift has become her curse. Feared and forbidden from using her abilities, she has spent her life in solitary confiement. But when her aunt offers her freedom, it comes at a terrible price: assassinate the Crowned Prince.

Rusden is the Crowned Prince of Mieli, a kingdom on the brink of destruction. War with the galdara has left his people starving, the land cursed, and his own future to be bound in a loveless betrothal. He blames galdara for everything-until an unexpected alliance with Nesrin forces him to question everything he thought he knew.

Enemies by fate. Partners by necessity. But when hearts betray duty, love could cost them everything.

As Nesrin and Rusden's fates become dangerously intertwined, they must decide: will they risk everything for love, or use it to gain their freedom?
