Those Savage Stars

Summary

Elara: As an infant, I was abandoned on the steps of a church. My childhood was spent in an abusive foster home. At nineteen, I killed someone.

Not long after, three men in black cloaks kidnap me and whisk me through a magical portal to a world I never knew existed. But the enchanting realm of Celestria is in turmoil. A dark enemy has infiltrated the land and is attempting to seize control. The last hope of the people of Celestria is locating Changelings in the mortal world . . . like me.

Yet an assessment of my magic leads to a shocking revelation. Someone used a powerful spell to suppress my powers. But who? And why?

Prince Kage Dargan: The moment I see her, my world pauses. Though we've never met, the girl is familiar to me. Since I was a boy . . . she has visited me in my dreams.

Even so, I can't let my guard down around her. The last Changeling I trusted tried to kill me. Besides, my attraction to her is a temptation I can't risk. My parents arranged my upcoming marriage years ago and breaking that pact could have steep consequences.

Still, I have to wonder why the girl from my dreams has finally appeared. Is it fate? Or something far more sinister?
