A Kingdom of Stars and Shadows (Deluxe Edition) by Holly Renee

Betray a kingdom or betray my heart.

My union to the crowned prince will determine the fate of the kingdom, but it isn't my betrothed who haunts my dreams: it's the half-fae bastard who stands at his side.

He is darkness and sin, and when he whispers wickedness in my ear, I crave a man I can't have. Every thought I have is treasonous. The way my hands ache to touch him deceitful. Even my dreams make me a traitor to the kingdom I am sworn to protect.

But when our kingdom is attacked, I am forced to make a choice…and face a bitter truth. For our lies and deception are entangled in the shadows and stars, and as they unravel, so shall my fate.
