Bride of the Gilded Prince
(2022)(The first book in the Elves of the Eternal Court series)
A novel by Silya Barakat
When the elves come looking for a bride, you do whatever it takes to protect the ones you love. Even if that means marrying the coldest and most dangerous of them all.
Thimsal's life was perfect until she became a bargaining chip for her people. When they come to find a bride for their ruthless prince, she volunteers to save the only person who she's ever thought of as a sister.
Now, she's embroiled in a snake pit of court politics which might be more treacherous than any battlefield. Thimsal may start out as a naive outsider, but if she doesn't become the princess she needs to be, she'll find that there are worse endings than death in the elvish courts.
As if that weren't enough, Prince Maedras, her betrothed, is a man with secrets of his own. She's always known him as a monster, a creature set to end her people's very existence, but as their courtship continues, she'll find that there may be more to him than meets the eye.
When your people's lives are stake, do you trust your head or your heart? And in a world where everyone commits atrocities, how do you choose a side?
There is only one thing that matters in her world now: power. Maybe she belongs here more than she ever knew...
This slow burn romantic fantasy with a touch of spice is perfect for readers looking for an immersive, unique world.
Author’s note: This is book 1 in a series and ends on a cliff. Book 1 is not the standard for the heat of the romance and each book gets spicier.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
