The Crown of Moonlight

Outlander meets the Otherworld in a mythic romantic fantasy inspired by Scottish history, where the land itself is magic and chooses a woman as its champion. She‘s the Highlander who saves his life with forbidden magic. He‘s the immortal stranger who falls for her—one yearning touch, one fierce kindness at a time. Flora Domhnall is determined to protect her people and keep her Highland clan neutral in a war between immortals, even if it means marrying a man she loathes. Then she finds a dying warrior—one of the rebel king‘s own Riders—bleeding in her woods. If the Raven Queen‘s soldiers catch him, Flora‘s clan will hang as traitors. If she turns him away, the rebel‘s side will demand revenge. Where every option is a trap, Flora has no choice but to escort him off her land. Chyr never expected to owe his life to a mortal woman. He‘s supposed to live forever, but a mysterious wound is dragging him toward death, and the doorway back to his world is sealing shut. If he misses it, the Raven Queen will tighten her grip on Flora‘s realm and turn her conquest toward Chyr‘s world beyond the Veil. His oaths have turned Chyr into a weapon, and they won‘t let him rest until the war is won. Forced to cross the burning Highlands together, Flora and Chyr must evade the Raven Queen‘s forces day and night. Trust is dangerous, but their longing grows with every mile they share a saddle, every sacrifice made in silence, and every moment they guard each other. Then the ancient sovereignty magic of the Cailleach Queens awakens in Flora—and marks her as something the world hasn‘t seen in four hundred years. Something Chyr‘s oaths will command him to destroy. For Flora, he‘ll try to defy those oaths. Even if he must die to save her. The Crown of Moonlight is a luminous Celtic fantasy perfect for readers who love the haunting historical romance of Diana Gabaldon‘s Outlander, the soul-deep yearning of Rebecca Ross, and the dark, aching magic of Rachel Gillig‘s One Dark Window. The first book in a sweeping series about ancient crowns, impossible oaths, and a love that must survive betrayal, war, and the gods themselves.
