THE ECLIPSE SOVEREIGN

THE ECLIPSE SOVEREIGN
In a world divided by the sun and the moon, the most dangerous place to stand is in the shadow.
In the Kingdom of Aethelgard, the light doesn't just illuminate-it judges. By day, the Solaris royalty rule with a blinding, golden fist, enforcing a doctrine of absolute purity. But when the sun dips below the horizon, the world sheds its skin. The "Gilded Day" dissolves into the "Savage Night," and the ruling class transforms into the very monsters they claim to despise: the Night-Walkers, predatory creatures of hunger and starlight.
Elara Vance is a girl of the seams.
A sharp-tongued archivist living in the slums of the Hollow Quarter, Elara carries a secret that would see her "cauterized" by the Sun-Priests: she is Eclipse-Touched. She belongs to neither realm, possessing a forbidden magic that allows her to walk the threshold between Day and Night. When she is caught outside during the transformation, she encounters the most feared creature in Aethelgard-the Wraith of Nox.
Prince Kaelen Thorne is a man of two deaths.
By day, he is the Golden Son, the High Commander of the Solar Guard. By night, he is the Wraith, a silent executioner with wings made of nothingness. He is a prisoner of his own bloodline, tasked by his parasitic father to find the key to the Temple of the Void-a place that could make the Solaris immortal and the Night eternal.
When Kaelen realizes Elara is the key he's been hunting, he doesn't kill her. He claims her.
Forced into a lethal alliance, Elara and Kaelen must navigate a court of glass and a forest of thorns. As the lines between hatred and hunger begin to blur, they discover a truth more terrifying than the monsters in the dark: the King isn't just protecting the light-he's consuming it.
To save her brother and break the cycle of blood, Elara must decide if she can trust the man who hunts her in the light and haunts her in the dark. Because in the heart of the Eclipse, the only way to survive the fire is to become the flame.
One throne. Two monsters. A love that will burn the sky.
