A cursed crown. A throne that remembers. A queen who was never meant to survive.

Talia Marris was never supposed to rule. Born of silence and shaped by shadows, she entered the Hollow court wearing a borrowed name—and bound herself in blood to a prince forged from fire and ruin.

But the Hollow is not just history. It's alive.

When the throne recognizes Talia's blood and the relic stirs in her bonded prince, long-buried secrets ignite a power that could break the kingdom—or remake it.

To claim her place, Talia must navigate a dying court, a bond that threatens to devour her, and the awakening of an ancient force that demands a sacrifice.

In a world where memory is magic and thrones choose their rulers, the truth is simple:

She wasn't chosen by blood.
She was chosen because she remembered.

Perfect for fans of Carissa Broadbent, Kerri Maniscalco, and darkly romantic fantasy full of court politics, ancient magic, haunted bloodlines, and dangerously slow-burn romance.
