Cursed Alliance is a slow-burn romantasy filled with ancient magic, forbidden attraction, political intrigue, and a realm on the brink of collapse... For centuries, the Lightbound and Shade Coven factions have been locked in a bitter conflict, their hatred etched into every law, every tradition, every scar left behind. But when a violent surge of unstable magic threatens to tear the realm apart, two unlikely heirs are thrust together-and forced to trust the last person they ever expected. Lyra Valeth, heir to the Lightbound, has spent her life fighting the darkness clawing at her power. Controlled, gifted, and dangerously close to unraveling, she's determined to prove she is worthy of her lineage. Kael Draven, brooding successor to the Shade Coven, wields shadows with ease-but beneath his calm exterior lies a man burdened by betrayal and a destiny he never wanted. When a fragile alliance is forged to save their world, Lyra and Kael must navigate deadly politics, ancient prophecies, and growing feelings neither can afford. But the magic awakening between them is more dangerous than the corruption threatening the realm-and if they fall for each other, they may doom everything they swore to protect.
