A Kiss for a Crown Signed Deluxe Hardcover - Preorder (Ships September 2026)

She kidnaps him. Fake engagement, high-conflict, slower burn romance, modern magical world with political intrigue. Crescent City meets Jade City.

Blurb:

Ever tried convincing someone you've abducted that faking an engagement is for their protection?

Issa hadn't either, but Hale, an insufferable curator who had unwittingly triggered ancient magic, had sprouted wings, and the Initiative was rounding up others like him off the streets in broad daylight. If he didn't accept her offer and help her figure out what was happening, he would be taken too. 

As the Heir to the Dominee throne, she could protect him. She hoped. Or else the Initiative would ensure any knowledge he had learned would be buried in an early grave.

Together, they must discover why the modern world's magic is changing and mythical creatures are reemerging. 

But when an ancient villain resurfaces, more is at stake than they ever dreamed, and falling in love is the surest path to defeat. Will Issa's fire falcon and lion-dragon be enough with Hale's untested magic to protect each other and those they love?
