The Wrong Groom
Liliana Elveire's wedding ring chooses the wrong groom. Standing before the altar, she is meant to bind her life to Leon Arvent, the flawless heir selected by her noble family. Instead, a single altered letter sends the magical marriage contract across the kingdom-to Lion Arvent, a scarred stranger whose name has been erased from his own bloodline. The contract gives Liliana no wedding night and no peaceful escape.
It forces her to feel Lion's wounds, his fear, and every attempt the kingdom makes to use his body as the price of its oldest promises. Before the authorities can find him, they order the bond destroyed-even if the man at the other end does not survive. Liliana refuses to let the Contract Office correct its mistake by sacrificing someone it has already decided does not matter. Her search leads from the glittering capital to a borderland poisoned by broken magic, where she finds a husband who never chose her, trusts no noble, and would rather bear every wound alone than become part of another contract.
Lion wants the bond severed. Liliana wants the truth. Neither expects the dangerous intimacy of sharing pain, secrets, and a connection that begins to feel far more real than the marriage arranged for her. But the wrong name on the parchment was no accident. Someone erased Lion from history. Someone built the kingdom's laws around that lie. And as Liliana and Lion uncover the conspiracy buried beneath their marriage, their unwanted bond may become the only thing standing between Alpheria and collapse.
A slow-burn romantic fantasy filled with contract magic, hidden identities, noble intrigue, reluctant allies, forbidden desire, and a heroine determined to challenge a kingdom that treats human lives as clauses to be rewritten. The law says Liliana married the wrong man. Her heart may be about to make the same mistake.
