Night elf legend places an immortal king in the lost Valley of Mists, locked in endless sleep until a fated bride ends his curse.
Aspiring scholar Camryn Halivard crosses the deadly wilds of Dunmaren in search of that unfinished tale and is pulled from danger by Xaviel, a lethal, beautiful shapeshifter who sets a brutal price: break the curse or die trying.
After centuries of cursed existence, Xavi lives only to guard the king who is closer to him than a brother, and he sees in brilliant, innocent Ryn the bride who might finally open their prison.
He also knows his heart cannot claim her, no matter how completely it breaks.
An enchanted labyrinth of monsters and the cutting terms of twisted fae bargains stand between them and any ending at all.
The last page of the legend is still unwritten, poised between enduring love and a sacrifice neither of them can undo.
