Shackled by Shadows - Paperback

by L. L. Reid (Author)

She escaped her captors. She didn't escape the prince who destroyed her realm.

The cities of the Light Realm lie in ruin, the kingdom's magic bled dry, and its people scattered to the wind. Lyra should have been broken along with it.

After decades of imprisonment and torture, she finally escapes the darkness that stole everything from her. But her freedom is fleeting and lasts only a single night before she is captured once again, this time by the one male she has every reason to fear: Prince Oberon. Heir to the Dark Realm, he is the prince whose name is whispered alongside war, bloodshed, and ruin.

Instead of returning her to her enemies, Oberon hides her away behind powerful wards and impossible secrets. Determined to survive, Lyra refuses to trust him. Yet the longer she remains in his care, the harder it becomes to reconcile the monster she expected with the male standing before her.

As ancient magic awakens and dangerous truths come to light, Lyra discovers her kingdom's fall may not be the whole story. Caught between vengeance and desire, light and shadow, duty and destiny, she must decide who the true enemy is before a brewing war consumes both realms.
