​A Duke's daughter wears a crown woven of vengeance, forcing her to choose between blood and a kingdom's survival.

​When Elara Vane, daughter of the treacherous Duke of the Southlands, is offered as a peace collateral to the ancient Elven kingdom of Aethelgard, she expects a gilded prison. What she finds is far worse: she is the living embodiment of a blood debt owed to Prince Kaelen, the Black Sentinel. Kaelen is not a distant tyrant; he is the twin brother of the elf Elara's father brutally murdered, and he has sworn to repay the debt by taking her life, piece by piece. Her gilded cage is merely the first step in the coronation of her sorrow.

​Trapped in a silent, crystalline spire, Elara must face not only the Prince's cold, absolute hatred, but the horrifying truth of her father's wickedness. Yet, as Kaelen uses her life as the ultimate leverage against the human realm, Elara realizes her survival depends on one treacherous gamble: using her intelligence to fight her own father's war from the inside.

​Forced into the role of Kaelen's indispensable spy, Elara is drawn into a high-stakes game of political chess and lethal intimacy. She secures a temporary reprieve, but the threat remains: the moment her usefulness ends, the crown of ivy will become a noose of thorns.

​A Crown of Ivy and Sorrow is an intense, character-driven fantasy that explores the dangerous line between justice and vengeance, and the treacherous bond forged between two enemies linked by a shared, bloody fate.
