She entered their world seeking survival. She found a destiny tied to darkness and a prince sworn to destroy her. Elara is human, an outsider thrust into the treacherous halls of Shadowthorn Academy, a brutal training ground for the Fae elite. With only fragmented memories of her past and a strange, unpredictable magic flickering within her, she's an anomaly, a target in a world of lethal beauty and deadly politics. Her very presence attracts the attention of Prince Cassian, the enigmatic and dangerous heir to the Winter Court. He's tasked with eliminating threats to his realm, and the untamed power radiating from Elara marks her as his primary quarry. Yet, beneath the animosity, an undeniable spark ignites - a forbidden connection that defies the ancient prophecy binding them both. As Elara navigates perilous trials, cutthroat rivalries, and the intoxicating allure of the prince who watches her every move, she uncovers secrets about her own lineage and the dark prophecy that names her the Herald of Balance - a force destined to either mend the encroaching void or shatter the Fae world forever. Caught between her growing power, the machinations of shadowy enemies, and the magnetic pull towards the prince who is both her adversary and her protector, Elara must master the paradox within her before it consumes her. Can she embrace her destiny and save a world that fears her, or will the crown of ash and starlight be her undoing? Dive into Crown of Ash and Starlight, the first book in a captivating new Romantasy series perfect for fans of Fourth Wing, Zodiac Academy, and From Blood and Ash. If you love enemies-to-lovers, dangerous magic academies, dark Fae princes, and prophecies that rewrite the fate of worlds, you won't be able to put this down.
