Synopsis

He's waited 500 years for her. Now he only has three days to win her heart.

LYRA: I was born to rule the stars. As the daughter of the pirate king, my destiny was to command my own fleet, chart my own course, and carve my name into the heavens.

But when mutiny strikes, I become the spoils of war–a pawn in a power-hungry tyrant's game. My fate is sealed, until my father pushes me overboard into the heart of a nebula cloud.

I should have died.

Instead, I find him, a creature of legend and stardust. One of the fabled Celestari.

VAELION: For five centuries, I've searched the stars for my Resonance–the one whose song will soothe my lonely soul. I just never thought she would come to me screaming in fear rather than singing.

And I never imagined she would be human. Nor that she would hold the means to destroying my people forever.

Lyra is my mate, my heart, my everything. But to be part of her world, I must make a deal with the witchking and sacrifice all that I am. Without my Voice, I am powerless. Without my magic, I am vulnerable. But without her, I am nothing.

Three days. That is all I have. And if I fail, I will lose more than just my freedom—I will lose her. And the key to saving my world. Can I possibly win Lyra's heart before time runs out?

Or will I be lost to the witchking's void forever?
