A Curse of Shadows and Sanctuary

A kingdom built on stone. A curse that will not fade. And a love that dares to bloom.

Arissa Harcanus is running out of time. Afflicted by a mysterious curse that grows stronger with each passing day, she is forced to flee her homeland in search of sanctuary. Her last hope lies in Mossuen—a harsh, northern kingdom where magic is feared, forbidden, and punishable by death. But with the king’s decree, she is allowed a chance at survival… but watched as closely as an enemy.

Grayson Calder has spent his life earning his place with steel and discipline. Knighthood is his only chance to lift his struggling family from poverty, and when the king assigns him to guard a foreign princess, he knows better than to question the order. Protecting her is his duty—nothing more.

But Arissa is not the fragile, pampered royal Grayson expects. And Grayson is far colder than the hero Arissa hoped for.

As her strength wanes and tensions rise within the palace walls, the line between duty and desire begins to blur. To survive, they must learn to trust one another—before fear, prejudice, and a curse rooted deeper than either of them realizes tears them apart.

Because in a kingdom built on stone and silence, even the smallest spark of love can set everything ablaze.

For fans of epic fantasy and enemies-to-lovers romance, A Curse of Shadows and Sanctuary is the thrilling conclusion to the Accursed Kingdoms series. While it is recommended to read Books 1 and 2 first, this standalone novel will leave readers on the edge of their seats until the very end.
