After the war with Hybern, Nesta Archeron is supposed to be healed, happy, and domestic in the Night Court. Spoiler: she’s none of those things. Living with Cassian in the House of Wind feels less like home and more like a gilded cage, and no amount of his brooding charm can soothe her restlessness. Enter Lucien Vanserra: outsider, rogue, and expert at looking bored while everyone else fumbles through courtly etiquette. He’s equally out of place in Velaris, juggling his complicated ties to the Inner Circle and Elain. When their paths collide, Nesta recognizes in him a kindred spirit—and suddenly, the promise of a little chaos, freedom, and maybe mischief, is far too tempting to ignore.
