Crown of Silk and Shadows: A Dark Romantic Fantasy of Courtly Intrigue and Forbidden Desire

A seamstress with forbidden magic.

A crown prince forged in shadows.

A kingdom where every thread can unravel a throne.

Elara Thorne has survived the slums and carved out a fragile life as the royal seamstress. But when whispers of her enchanted gowns reach the ear of Prince Caspian Valdris—the ruthless heir to Aethermoor—she is drawn into a dangerous game of power, passion, and betrayal.

In a palace of gilded halls and hidden daggers, Elara’s secret could be her salvation—or her execution. The prince is as captivating as he is dangerous, and his attention comes with a cost: loyalty, trust, and perhaps her very heart.

As factions conspire and bloodlines are tested, every choice Elara makes weaves her tighter into a deadly tapestry of silk and shadow.

Perfect for readers of From Blood and Ash, The Serpent and the Wings of Night, and Throne of Glass, this dark romantic fantasy delivers courtly intrigue, morally grey lovers, and a slow-burn romance that burns as hot as betrayal.
