A Rift in the House of Bruin - Paperback

by T. S. Kinley (Author)

I never meant to end up in Hiraeth. But when your life is measured in weeks instead of years, you'll chase hope anywhere. Even into a realm on the brink of ruin.

Within the shadowed halls of the House of Bruin, seven beast princes vowed to find my cure, their oath heavy with the weight of an untold destiny. But nothing is as it seems in Hiraeth. The King is dead. A treacherous steward has tightened his grip on the throne, turning the once-vibrant kingdom into a land of fear and fractured loyalties. Whispers of rebellion, betrayal, and a strange illness plague the countryside.

Caught in the crosshairs of political treason and forbidden desire, I find myself at the heart of a budding revolution. The princes vow to protect me, but their secrets run as deep as the shadows in this land. And my heart betrays me every time I meet one of their lingering stares.

As my connection to the princes deepens, so does the weight of my choices. But one thing is clear: an ancient prophecy binds my fate to the kingdom's survival. And to save one, I may have to sacrifice the other.

Hiraeth isn't just a place-it's a test. A test of my will to survive, my courage to fight, and my heart to love. Every step forward pulls me deeper into the chaos, and the cure I came for feels farther and farther away.

Only one truth remains: The greatest risks often lead to the most extraordinary triumphs.
