A Song of Broken Dreams

My voice saved the city. Now it might destroy everything I love.

The Vampire Queen may be quiet, but her whispers reach through my brother Milo, twisting him with silver eyes and dangerous power. Every song I sing calms him, yet each note tears my throat raw and drags me closer to silence—and the Queen is waiting for me to break.

Faelan, the exiled Fae King, still lingers like winter’s shadow. His touch steadies me, but his silence cuts deeper than any blade. He keeps his distance, but I can’t forget how it felt to lean on him as the world fell apart. And Corvin—my vampire protector—has vanished, leaving a hollow ache where his loyalty once burned.

I was meant to be the Bridge between dreams and despair, but bridges collapse under too much weight. If I falter, the Queen won’t just claim Milo—she’ll bind the whole world in her hollow reign.

Perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Carissa Broadbent who crave fallen kings, morally gray vampires, and heroines whose fragile power could either save or shatter the world.
