Noah Evander Mareville was the soul of his found family-the quiet strength. To Lissette, he was more: he was her heart, her peace, the only one who saw the quiet girl behind the Montclair name. His murder was the spark that lit the fuse on an empire.
Now, the world he held together is shattered. Lissette, the gentle moon to his steady sun, has crumbled into a silence so profound it screams. Her light is gone, and the darkness that remains terrifies those who love her. Alaric, the prince who built walls around his heart, feels his anchor is gone. Laila's love, once a comforting fire, now burns with a thirst for vengeance against those who destroyed her sister. Louis, the steadfast brother, must hold his broken family together as secrets threaten to tear them apart. And Leofric, the boy Noah left behind, must grow up in the shadow of a war he never asked for.
Noah's final wish was for them to be happy. But in a world of poison, betrayal, and forgotten princesses, happiness is a luxury they can no longer afford. To find peace, they will first have to burn everything down.
