About this book
I never meant to end up in Hiraeth. But when your life is measured in weeks instead of years, you'll chase hope anywhere. Even into a realm on the brink of ruin.
Within the shadowed halls of the House of Bruin, seven beast princes vowed to find my cure, their oath heavy with the weight of an untold destiny. But nothing is as it seems in Hiraeth. The King is dead. A treacherous steward has tightened his grip on the throne, turning the once-vibrant kingdom into a land of fear and fractured loyalties. Whispers of rebellion, betrayal, and a strange illness plague the countryside.
Caught in the crosshairs of political treason and forbidden desire, I find myself at the heart of a budding revolution. The princes vow to protect me, but their secrets run as deep as the shadows in this land. And my heart betrays me every time I meet one of their lingering stares.
As my connection to the princes deepens, so does the weight of my choices. But one thing is clear: an ancient prophecy binds my fate to the kingdom's survival. And to save one, I may have to sacrifice the other.
Hiraeth isn't just a place—it's a test. A test of my will to survive, my courage to fight, and my heart to love. Every step forward pulls me deeper into the chaos, and the cure I came for feels farther and farther away.
Only one truth remains: The greatest risks often lead to the most extraordinary triumphs.

I absolutely loved this book. Amazing writing. The story is so good. It had me in a chokehold from the first chapter. I can’t wait for the next book. )

I may have enjoyed the book more if I had the previous series read first as it has some references but it was still readable and a hot one at that The story is a slow built reverse harem which gets to superhot time to time and again. Still it has a strong lead story with adventure and more trouble that befalls to the heroine and heroes… And of course its finishes as a cliffhanger… so I need to continue…. ;) ) 5 people found this helpful

7 fated mates and all brothers! That's a little strange but it's still a good story. The only downfall is that it is to be continued. ) One person found this helpful

Says its a stand alone book, but it is not. Very disappointing. There is a second book now advertised. This one ends with a \"to be continued.\" I enjoyed the story, but expected it to be complete. Advertised as a 1 of 1. The Bruin royalty characters are written well. I was a bit disappointed with the main female character, Michaela. Wish she had stronger mental fortitude. My opinion though. Best to start with the 4 book series about Michaela's sister Gwen and Peter Pan, to get Michaela's full...
