Mira has one power that could save her — and get her killed.
For nineteen years, she has hidden the starlight magic in her blood, healing in secret in the mortal village of Thornwood, terrified of the one truth her dying mother made her swear never to reveal. When she breaks her silence to save a child's life, the immortal Courts of Nocterra feel it — and the fae come for her before the next dawn.
Kaelen Nightborn, High Lord of the Court of Shadows, doesn't kill her. He needs her. Because Mira isn't just a mortal who touched forbidden magic — she is the last of the Starborn, the one power that could break the curse tearing his realm apart, and every Court in Nocterra will kill or bargain to have her first.
Trapped between an immortal lord she can't trust and a war she never chose, Mira strikes a fae bargain of her own — one that binds her to Kaelen's court, his protection, and, impossibly, to him. As a cruel rival queen closes in and the truth of what Mira really is comes to light, she'll have to decide how much of herself she's willing to give to save a realm that was never supposed to be hers.
A fae fantasy romance of forbidden magic, fated bargains, and the vow that could burn two worlds down.
Book One of the Nocterra Saga.
