She came to burn it all down. Instead, the castle crowned her its queen.
Two centuries after Lenore’s sacrifice, Elspeth Hawthorne arrives at Eldermere Castle with nothing left but rage. The castle awakens to her fury—ghosts serve her, statues weep, and a dragon god stirs beneath the stones. His voice whispers hunger and worship in equal measure.
The world warns her to be afraid. The castle adores her rage. And when emissaries come to claim its power, Elspeth answers with fire, ruin, and the promise of a crown.
Grace Yarrow writes hauntingly romantic tales where love is a blade, shadows whisper secrets, and every crown comes with a curse. Her stories are for those who crave love stories drenched in moonlight and danger—where the monsters are just as likely to steal your heart as your soul.
