A Kingdom of Salt and Stone (The Jewel-Light Trilogy Book 1)

In a world forged from primordial chaos, the gods play a dangerous game, forcing mortals to carry shards of their volatile divinity. For Maeve Willawood, this divine selection is not a blessing but a suffocating cage. As an outlier burdened with a rare and devastating gift, Maeve is thrust into a life she despises, stripped of her autonomy and forced to navigate a landscape of moral decay and celestial schemes.

The tension escalates when she is assigned a personal guard tasked with watching her every move. What begins as a volatile clash of wills quickly transforms into an unexpected sanctuary found in the depths of cerulean eyes. As the lines between captor and protector blur, Maeve must grapple with the heavy cost of her power and the growing threat to her existence.

This gripping paranormal romance masterfully weaves together the forced proximity and enemies-to-lovers tropes, creating a high-stakes atmosphere where passion ignited by angst feels as dangerous as the magic itself. If you are searching for a story where betrayal lurks in the shadows and survival requires a hardened heart, dive into this tale of divine curses and the desperate fight to protect the only things that truly matter.
