Vol. 01: Dreams of Gold
Her beautiful sister was meant to be the one competing for the crown prince’s hand – but now shy girl Iris is forced to take her place. Yet if she wants to be queen, she must first survive a deadly contest…
This is the day the daughters of Vesmon’s aristocracy have been preparing for all their lives: the day of the Royal Games, whose winner will marry the crown prince. Without her training in magic, Iris would never have qualified for the contest, but now that her sister Hyacinth is suddenly out of the running, she has no choice.
The moment Iris arrives at the royal court, she is drawn into a web of intrigue. Her mentor Cylus is her only hope of survival – but despite his stand-offish ways, he soon makes her lose sight of her original goal…
Vol.02: Chosen: House of Ashes
After the assassination of Prince Cilian and the revelation that Prince Cylus is the true crown prince, the king will do anything to preserve the integrity of the Royal Games. Iris is faced with a cruel choice: continue to take part in this fatal contest, or be executed. Only the top three will survive, but victory – and thus a chance at happiness with Cylus – is impossible. While Iris keeps up her tough fighter’s façade in front of the cameras, deep down she’s finding it increasingly harder to hide her true feelings for Cylus. But ever since his cousin Cilian’s assassination, the prince is convinced he can’t trust her. Will she be able to win his heart – and survive the Royal Games?
