The Crowned Fugitive

A girl born with dangerous magic. A prince she is sent to kill. A love that could shatter a kingdom.

Nesrin is a galdara, born with both Elemental and Psyche magic—a power so rare and feared that she has spent her life in solitary confinement. When her aunt offers her freedom, the price is lethal: assassinate the Crowned Prince of Mieli.

Prince Rusden is heir to a kingdom on the edge of ruin. War with the galdara has left his people starving and his fate chained to a loveless betrothal. He's spent his life resenting the galdara—until an unexpected alliance with Nesrin, offers him the one thing he's never had: a chance to break free from the weight of his crown.

Enemies by fate. Partners by necessity. But when duty collides with desire, Nesrin and Rusden must choose:

Will they risk their lives for love—or use it to win their freedom?
