About Storms And Secrets
In a kingdom where magic means death, Princess Alina Everglen has lived all her life behind gilded walls—safe, privileged, and utterly alone. When a violent storm and a daring rebel raid shatter the palace’s illusion of security, Alina is thrust into the world of the Gifted, people like her who have been hunted for generations.
Held captive by Kael Stormborne—the mysterious, charismatic rebel leader—Alina’s world unravels as she discovers her own suppressed powers and the ugly truth behind her family’s reign. Caught between the duty of a princess and the promise of rebellion, Alina must decide where her loyalty truly lies.
As passion ignites and danger closes in, Alina faces a choice that will remake the kingdom: uphold her birthright, or risk everything to fight for justice, love, and freedom.
Will she become the future her people need… or the enemy her father always feared?
Storms and Secrets is a sweeping tale of forbidden magic, slow-burn romance, and the courage to choose your own destiny.
