The Daughter of Shadows and Ivory

In a realm where alliances are sealed in blood and prophecy whispers through the stones of ancient temples, Princess Evera of Eldorious is bound to a future she never chose. Forced into a political marriage with the enigmatic Prince Niall of Noxtura, Evera steps into a world of cold courts, sharper traditions, and secrets buried deep in the shadows. But destiny has other plans. A prophecy speaks of five enchanted jewels-Sapphire, Ruby, Diamond, Emerald, and Pearl-each with the power to either heal or destroy the world. Evera is tied to their magic by blood and fate, destined to awaken them... or become the catalyst for ruin. As tensions rise between kingdoms and whispers of rebellion grow louder, an ancient faction known as the New Moon marks Evera for death, fearing what her rise could mean. With assassins in the palace and war on the horizon, Evera and Niall must navigate a marriage born of necessity into a fragile alliance of trust. Together, they must confront not only the secrets of the prophecy but the truths they keep from each other, and from themselves. Because some love stories are forged in fire. And some destinies refuse to be denied. The Daughter of Shadows and Ivory is the first book in a sweeping tale of power, sacrifice, and the thin line between salvation and destruction.
