Story
Lyra's fiancé betrayed her, and her family joined in the humiliation. She then picks a stranger with no money and no horns as her destined mate, a man called Ethan who hides a far bigger secret than his empty pockets. When the envious Astrid reaches for forbidden magic, and deadly enemies press in, Lyra has to fight for love, dignity and her own power.
