The second book of the Elara Saga - darker, deeper, and more breathtaking than ever. The sky is breaking. The land is waking. And the Crown is no longer silent. After the ritual that bound her to Kael, Elara discovers that her power is changing - slipping beyond her control and drawing the attention of something ancient buried beneath the throne. The Council demands obedience, the Crown whispers war, and the world fractures as storms tear new wounds across the continent.
But the greatest danger is not the Rift above them. It is what stirs below. Kael's fire is the only warmth left in the frozen hollow of her chest, yet their bond has become both weapon and curse. Every heartbeat shared between them feeds the thing that wants to claim her - and devour everything she loves. To save her realm, Elara must face a truth the Crown tried to bury:Some powers cannot be controlled.
Only chosen. In a world of cracked skies, awakening monsters, political betrayal and forbidden fire, Elara must decide what she is willing to sacrifice.Her crown. Her freedom. Or the one person who refuses to let her fall.
