Summary: Falling for a royal guard with glowing eyes and a lethal energy punch? Definitely not on my Terrafeara survival bingo card. But here we are. I’ve spent over two years in this stitched-together world of monsters, rebels, and volatile rifts, doing my best to stay under the radar—mostly. That ends the moment an Aussie crash-lands into my life, half-dead and dragging the Glowranth crown prince’s attention with him. Apparently, this stranger is fated for more than just trouble. To save him, I’m forced to team up with Kael—prince’s guard, Glowranth warrior, and six-foot-plus of brooding, blue-skinned temptation who makes my pulse race and my sarcasm sharper. He’s loyal, lethal, and infuriatingly irresistible… and somehow, he might be mine. If I let him. Now we’re trekking through hostile terrain, uncovering truths about our bond, the rebellion, and something far worse: these rifts may not be accidents. Someone could be creating them on purpose. Time’s running out. The Aussie’s dying. Enemies are circling. And Kael and I are falling fast—whether I’m ready for it or not. Because in a realm ruled by power and prophecy, love isn’t just messy. It’s world-altering. This is a monster-filled romantic fantasy packed with portal-hopping, fated mates, and the kind of enemies-to-lovers tension that comes with forced proximity and clashing personalities. Expect “mine” vibes, hurt/comfort twists, alpha-level danger, and a spark-filled collision between sharp-witted sass and broody, battle-hardened muscle.
