Velora Maris has spent her life dreaming of something beyond Saltmere. Raised in a quiet seaside village, she has always felt the pull of unanswered questions—especially the mystery surrounding the father she never knew.

When a royal summons calls young women from across realms to compete for the hands of three princes, Velora seizes her chance to uncover the truth. But the glittering court is far more dangerous than she imagined.

As deadly trials test her courage and ancient tensions threaten the fragile peace between the kingdoms, Velora finds herself caught between two princes: one who offers loyalty and certainty, and another who awakens secrets she was never meant to discover.

Yet the greatest danger lies not within the court, but within Velora herself. Because buried beneath centuries of lies, is a power tied to the fate of the kingdoms—and to a legacy that could change everything.

As war looms on the horizon and love tangles with rivalry, Velora must decide who to trust, what she’s willing to sacrifice, and what kind of storm she will become.

The kind that destroys... or the kind that saves.
