A CURSED EMPEROR

Princess Arabella of Althea is left no choice when Felix Osiris, the fearsome Shadow Emperor known for his deadly powers and his thirst for conquest, threatens to overthrow her home unless she agrees to marry him.

A PRINCESS WITH FORBIDDEN MAGIC

When she learns that he and his empire are plagued by ice and a monstrous darkness and she's been prophesized to set them free, they come to an agreement: help him minimize the curse's effect on his people, and he'll let her go.

A MARRIAGE THAT COULD SAVE THEM ALL...

As Felix teaches Arabella how to control her forbidden and volatile magic, her feelings for him turn from hatred to passion... and she realizes that she must break the curse or she'll forever lose him and everyone they love to the ice and shadows.
