The Broken Crown
A vampire commander broke a hundred-and-fifty years of protocol to save her. Now she has to dismantle everything he ever served.
Wren Ashgrove survived the Blood Tax. As the Triumvirate's newly acknowledged Crowned heir, she's spent months piecing together the truth: a thousand years of institutional lies, a vampire locked in suspension since before the Tax began, and a record that's about to expose exactly what the ruling courts have been hiding.
The Thorn Court has spent four centuries making sure the Compact's renewal never happens. They know exactly what the mechanism will find if it does - and they'll do anything to keep that buried.
Below the capital, Sevan is waking up. Four hundred years in suspension, and she's finally close to telling Wren what really happened the last time someone tried to restore the Compact - and why it failed so completely that an entire continent was rebuilt on the lie.
Wren has three of the four keys. She has the record. She has Roman Valdris at her side - the commander who chose her over everything he used to be, and who is still learning what that choice costs.
What she doesn't have is time.
The Broken Crown is Book Two of the Aeralis Trilogy - a paranormal romance series for readers who want the slow burn, the political reckoning, and the kind of love built on choosing each other again after the truth comes out.
