She was promised to a prince. Destiny chose a knight.
Princess Lyra Starweaver has read her future in the stars since childhood, a loveless political marriage, a crown she never wanted, and a life spent fulfilling everyone's expectations but her own. With three weeks until her wedding to Prince Darius, her fate seems sealed.
Until three assassins strike during her engagement ball.
The man who saves her isn't fae nobility or a powerful mage. He's Garrett Ashford, a mortal knight with storm-gray eyes and constellation scars burned into his skin, the same constellation that marks him in her personal prophecy. The prophecy she's hidden from everyone. The one that shows a different future entirely.
Assigned as her bodyguard, Garrett walks the dangerous line between duty and desire. He shouldn't feel this pull toward the princess he's sworn to protect. She's fae. He's mortal. She's promised to another. Their worlds don't mix.
But as they investigate who wants Lyra dead, they uncover a conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of court, and discover the prophecy binding her to Prince Darius isn't just wrong. It's been corrupted.
Someone has been manipulating destiny itself. And the life Lyra's been forced toward isn't fate at all.
Now she faces an impossible choice: fulfill the destiny chosen for her, or risk everything for the future she actually wants. With enemies closing in and her wedding day approaching, Lyra must decide whether she has the courage to defy prophecy, challenge her king, and choose love over duty.
Because some destinies are written in starlight. Others are written in choice.
CROWNED BY STARLIGHT is a standalone romantasy novella featuring forbidden romance, forced proximity, prophecy rebellion, and a swoon-worthy mortal knight who'll risk everything to give a princess back her freedom.
