Ash Under Moonlight. Sun and Moon Series, #2

Liora never meant to become the key to anyone's kingdom-least of all the Veil, a secretive order that hunts the spaces between doors and turns people into handles for their rituals. But when Liora is forced into a bargain with something older than any court, she survives by doing the impossible: stealing back control of the very thing that's been chasing her. With Prince Keiran at her side-fierce, loyal, and haunted by the crown that claims him-Liora fights through hidden corridors, dead bells, and blood-bound rules where "willing" can be weaponized.
As the Veil learns to mimic ancient power and the Sun Court tightens its grip, Liora must decide what she's willing to sacrifice. and what she will never surrender again. Because in a world built on thresholds, being a hinge isn't a gift. It's a war. And the only way to win is to choose what opens. and what stays shut. Perfect for readers who love action-driven fantasy romance, dark court intrigue, and slow-burn devotion forged in danger.
