Her star is fading. His secrets could destroy her. Together, they might save-or shatter-the world.

In a kingdom where every soul is bound to a star, Aelira's light begins to flicker. Fading means death, yet when shadowed beasts attack, she awakens a power no fading Starborn should possess.

Kael, her appointed guardian, swears to protect her on the perilous journey to the capital. But the more she fights for survival, the more she realizes Kael is hiding something-something tied to the stolen stars and the darkness consuming the skies.

When a ghostly messenger warns her of betrayal, Aelira must decide: trust the man who shields her, or uncover the truth that could break her heart-and doom them both.

Perfect for fans of Fourth Wing and From Blood and Ash, The Shadow Between Stars is the first book in a new romantasy series filled with slow-burn tension, dangerous secrets, and a destiny written in starlight.
