A Star of Darkness: A Scented Court Standalone
- eBook
Synopsis
Vesper’s past is locked away, and she’s sworn never to give away the key. Not even for love.
Vesper has always kept to herself among the Calyx, using her unique flora magic to please the scented court and to squirrel away royalties for her future.
What Vesper really wants is to forget her past, find love and build a new life, but when she receives a threatening letter right before she has to perform, she knows that the ghosts of her former life have caught up with her, and she can’t keep running away.
Is he prepared to betray all that he stands for in order to protect her?
Regalis, with his raptor familiar, is a respected senior warrior among the Fahyli, the elite fauna fae soldiers of Solana. In his professional life, he prizes loyalty and courage, but his heart seeks his perfect mate. Drawn to the calm and dutiful Vesper, he senses a deep well of old pain and a longing for love that she is afraid to pursue.
When a death at court sparks an investigation, he is torn between his growing feelings for her and the increasing evidence that she had something to do with it.
Every step he takes towards the truth takes him a step away from her.
When it comes to light that neither Vesper nor her unassuming moth familiar are what they appear to be, the star-crossed lovers face the ultimate test.
Vesper must decide if vengeance is worth the price of her soul, and Regalis must make the impossible choice between duty and love.
