A Bargain of Silk and Thorns

By Alicia Gallaher

She only agreed to one season.
She didn't agree to fall for a fae ruler...
or become something his world couldn't ignore.
Elira Vale is a struggling seamstress barely keeping her shop alive-until a dangerously beautiful stranger offers her a bargain she can't refuse.
One season in his court.
One contract to create enchanted gowns.
One chance to change her fate forever.
But Caelion isn't just any fae noble.
He rules the court.
And the moment Elira steps into his world, everything begins to unravel.
What starts as a simple arrangement becomes something far more dangerous when their connection sparks into a rare and powerful bond-one that draws the attention of the entire fae court... and something far older lurking beyond it.
Now Elira must navigate deadly politics, impossible magic, and a connection she doesn't fully understand-one that refuses to break, no matter how hard the world tries to tear it apart.
Because in a court built on power and control...
Choosing each other may be the most dangerous act of all.
