Cake, Champagne & a Stranger

By Velora Frost

Wren Ashby sees the threads of fate. She just never expected to find her own.

As a high-end wedding planner, Wren has spent her career arranging "happily ever afters" for everyone else. With a unique gift to see the glowing lines of connection between soulmates, she is an expert at finding the perfect match. But her own wrist has always remained stubbornly bare - until she arrives at the Aurelian Estate.

Enter Julian. Mysterious, uninvited, and surrounded by a shimmering golden glow that Wren has only seen in legends.

Julian is no ordinary guest. He is the Banishment Prince of the Umbral Court, a realm of shadows folded into the edges of our own. He was sent with a single mission: find the lost heir to the throne and bring her back in chains. He didn't expect to find his fated mate standing in the buffet line.

When the wedding comes under siege by shadow creatures, Wren's true identity is revealed. She isn't just a wedding planner; she is Isolde, the lost queen of the shadows. Now, she and the prince sent to capture her must choose between the crowns they were born to wear and the love that was written in the stars.

Perfect for fans of "fated mates" tropes and magical realism, Cake, Champagne & a Stranger is a cozy yet high-stakes romantasy about finding home in the person you least expect.
