J. E. Romm

Rose is the fae King’s sister, but her crown is a cage. With war tearing through the land, she’s ordered to marry the dark fae heir—the same one who makes her blood run cold. Peace demands her hand, but her heart? That’s a whole other battlefield. Her choices are as grim as the storm circling the skies: sacrifice her freedom or risk her people’s lives. Every step toward the altar feels like a betrayal. But Rose isn’t made of silk and sighs—she’s steel beneath the sorrow. As power, passion, and peril swirl around her, she has one question to answer: is fate unbreakable, or is there still time to choose her own ending?
