She inherited secrets, not safety—and her protector may be the greatest risk of all!

I was never meant to return to the island that haunted my childhood. But the pull was too strong. I'm Elara Thompson, an artist cursed with a legacy I don’t understand and a power I never asked for. As I tried to focus on the questions that needed answers, I learned that fate doesn't care about the rules, and love doesn't wait for the right time.

Meet Leo, my sworn guardian. My forbidden temptation. With a touch that feels like a promise and eyes that hide a thousand regrets, he’s everything I shouldn’t want—especially when danger circles closer each day.

Darkness is on the horizon when Viktor Kane, a man driven by greed, sets his sights on my extraordinary gifts. He seeks to unravel the balance of power tied to the aurora, forcing me to confront the legacy I never fully understood. As the threat looms closer, I realize that the key to my family's past lies in the mystery of my mother's disappearance—a truth steeped in danger and deception.

As my quest for my family's legacy brings danger that lurks at every corner, Leo becomes torn between his loyalty to me and his rising feelings. Will he confront his own demons as we both grapple with an emotional storm that threatens to consume us?

We soon become caught between love and peril and have to decide what we hold dear. Can our devotion withstand the secrets that threaten to tear us apart?

The aurora's glow holds the promise of hope, but shadows linger, waiting to claim what they desire. In a world where love and danger collide, I doubt if I can embrace my destiny and protect the light that binds us.

Some secrets protect. Others destroy. And the biggest one of all… is us.
