Synopsis
Alaric and Talasyn, rivals from opposing nations, are married in an alliance meant to end their war. Talasyn must play the part of Alaric's empress while her own allies plot to overthrow him, and her growing attraction to him complicates her choices. Alaric faces the Moonless Dark, a magical catastrophe that only the two of them can stop by combining light and shadow, while his father pursues darker schemes. The story continues the conflict between Sardovia and the Night Empire through political intrigue, magical adventure and an enemies-to-lovers romance in a Southeast Asia-inspired world.
