The Raven Kings True Name

Four months ago, Mara's sister vanished into Veyr. Their mother followed. Neither came back. Since then, Mara has done what she does best: kept moving. She opens Rupert's Herbal Remedies every morning, lives in the flat above it, and tries not to call hope by its name. Then the raven watching her window turns into a man. Vael is a king from the sealed realm beyond the gate - controlled, secretive, and carrying the weight of a crown that may have cost him everything And Faith may still be alive. To find her, Mara must learn to survive a world of dangerous glamour, broken loyalties and true names powerful enough to open doors, bind magic - or destroy the person who carries them. But Veyr has been sealed for three hundred years for a reason. The deeper Mara travels into its ruins, the harder it becomes to tell truth from influence, loyalty from control, or love from something far more dangerous. And if she wants her family back, she may have to trust the Raven King with the one thing she refuses to surrender. Her choice. A dark fantasy slow-burn romance with dangerous magic, ruined crowns, dry humour, family loyalty and an adult romance that has to earn its place.
