The Cliffs of Broken Wings

By Madison McAuley

An arranged marriage. A missing house guest. An unusual means of falling in love.

Daniel Johnson, handsome, charming, and heir to a viscountcy, is one of the most sought-after bachelors in the kingdom. That is until a dark family secret and a life-changing accident leave his future entirely uncertain. Desperate for an escape, he agrees to marry a stranger in the neighboring kingdom of Litoreus, with the goal of living a quiet life and removing himself from the control of the people who betrayed him.

Despite being the granddaughter of an earl, Lady Serephina is more comfortable tinkering in her workshop than trying to dazzle a ballroom. She agrees to marry a stranger in hopes that her new husband, with his good connections and easy manners, will help her in navigating the overwhelming social whirl. Instead, Daniel remains a cold stranger even more withdrawn than she is.

But when a friend disappears from a house party under suspicious circumstances, Daniel and Serephina must join forces to discover the truth. As their investigation unfolds, perhaps the most surprising discovery is their growing fondness for each other, and what started as a marriage of convenience turns into an indispensable partnership. But Daniel still has his secret, the truth of which could destroy everything. And as they close in on a villain in their midst, it's not only their love that's threatened, but also their very lives.

In the fourth stand-alone installment of the Fallen Stars series, you'll be skirted away to an island kingdom absent of magic, but full of mystery, intrigue, sweet romance, and adventure. Blending historical romance and fantasy with a healthy dose of mystery, readers young and old are sure to enjoy this clean and wholesome story.
