Princess Elara Voss was stripped of her crown, her title, and her family, left to rot in the ashes of a kingdom that betrayed her. Now, she is nothing more than a ghost haunting the borders of her own homeland, driven by a singular desire: survival. But when a mysterious scroll offers a glimpse of resistance, Elara realizes that exile is not the end, it is only the beginning.

Enter Kaelen, the Winged General of the Obsidian Guard, the very man who led the charge against her family. Bound by duty to the regime that destroyed her life, Kaelen carries a secret sorrow and a debt that can only be paid in blood. When he finds Elara in the ruins of the old citadel, he does not come to capture her. He comes to offer her a deal: a fake alliance to survive a greater threat lurking in the shadows of the court.

As they navigate a treacherous landscape of political intrigue, ancient magic, and deadly assassins, the line between deception and desire begins to blur. Elara must decide if she can trust the enemy who holds her fate in his hands, while Kaelen struggles against the oaths that bind him to a tyrant. Together, they must infiltrate the heart of the capital, where a new power has risen from the ashes of Elara's brother, a power that threatens to plunge the kingdom into eternal darkness.

The Court of Obsidian Wings is a standalone high fantasy romantasy featuring an exiled princess, a morally gray winged general, a fake-dating-turned-real alliance, and a closed, satisfying ending. Perfect for fans of Fourth Wing, From Blood and Ash, and stories where love is the most dangerous weapon of all.
