The first part of The Spellbound Saga, breathtaking romantasy in a magnificent Nordic setting inspired by the dramatic and beautiful Scandinavian nature, legends and folklore.

All her life, Silje has been trapped in the barren castle of Nightfall. She has no memory of her origins, knowing only that she is one of the young women of the court's High Circle, chosen to one day serve the feared ruler of Midaro, Ivan.

But when the two meet at a party, unexpected passion arises, and everything Silje believed to be true is overturned. As love grows, so do her magical powers and her longing for the outside world.

But the threats increase and Silje carries powers that could cost her life. Is there a way out? Can she trust the brutal Prince Ivan – the man she should fear but who makes her heart beat in a forbidden rhythm?
