A love born in dreams.

For eight years, she had been falling in love with a man who existed only in her dreams. A man she should have feared. A man she could never forget.

The story

Beyond the veil.

Beyond the veil lies a world Priscilla longs to belong to, and two men who could change what belonging means.

Drawn from the human world into an academy hidden in the Alps, Priscilla discovers a realm of immortals whose beauty is as compelling as its secrets. Aidan offers seduction, possibility, and a place beside him. For the first time, a future she could never have imagined feels within reach.

Then there is Charles.

Dangerous and difficult to trust, he unsettles her in ways she cannot explain. Every encounter gives her another reason to keep her distance and makes turning away more difficult.

As Priscilla enters the royal court, its luxury gives way to expectations she does not yet understand. Her growing connection to both men begins to change more than her feelings. Something within her is awakening, and she can no longer be certain where her humanity ends or what might take its place.

With her heart and her future entangled in their world, Priscilla must decide whom to believe, what she is willing to become, and how much of herself she will surrender to belong.

Of Soul and Crimson begins the Veil and Scepter series, a slow-burn romantic fantasy featuring a love triangle, morally grey characters, a hidden academy, and an opulent immortal court.
