A luminous romantic fantasy inspired by Scottish history, where the land itself is magic and chooses a woman as its champion.
She's the Highlander who saves his life with forbidden magic. He's the immortal stranger who falls first...one healing touch, one fierce kindness at a time.
Flora Domhnall is the last of her line: a healer, a strategist, her clan's only defence in a war neither side can win. When she finds a dying immortal warrior in her woods, saving him is a terrible risk. But if he dies on her land, her clan will pay the price.
Her choice binds her fate to his.
Chyr has spent centuries chained by oaths carved into his flesh, oaths that read his every thought. Violence and honour are all he knows, and Flora's brave, impossible mercy breaks him open.
Hunted across the burning Highlands, they can rely only on each other. Their longing grows with every mile they share a saddle, every sacrifice made in silence, and every night they guard each other in the dark.
He's hopelessly fallen. She's fighting not to fall.
Then the ancient sovereignty magic of the Cailleach Queens awakens in Flora, marking her as something the world hasn't seen in four hundred years.
And Chyr's oaths may demand he destroy the one person he can't bear to lose.
For her, he'll try to break his oaths. Even if it kills him.
From award-winning author Martina Boone, The Crown of Moonlight is a mythic Celtic romantasy perfect for readers who love the haunting historical romance of Diana Gabaldon's Outlander, the soul-deep yearning of Rebecca Ross, and the dark, aching magic of Rachel Gillig's One Dark Window. Book One in the sweeping Five Crowns series about ancient crowns, impossible oaths, and a love that must survive betrayal, war, and the gods themselves.
WHAT READERS ARE SAYING
I COULD NOT STOP reading. The slow burn! THE TENSION! THE YEARNING!! The romance was just so good I was on the floor. The Scottish lore is incredible and the world building sublime. -BookTok Reviewer
As a massive fan of Outlander, I went into this story hoping for a touch of sweeping romance, aching emotion, and lush world-building-and I was not disappointed...the same sense of fate-touched love, and that slow, simmering tension between two characters who feel destined for each other. -ARC Reviewer
The land and the world itself feel like another character in the story. The romance reminded me of Rebecca Ross's writing-it's soul-deep, human, and emotional, and I loved it. -ARC Reviewer
