Forsaken Light

When heartbreak drives Luna into the wilderness, she doesn’t expect to cross into another world. A place where the seasons have kings, where beauty hides cruelty, and where a single human woman can tip the balance between peace and ruin.

From betrayal and forbidden desire to war among the kingdoms, The Kingdom of Light follows one woman’s rise from broken heart to legend. Magic. Love. Revenge. Rebirth. The turning of the seasons will never be the same again.

The day the Porter family went bankrupt, my elder sister, who had been engaged to Calvin Porter, claimed she was in love with someone else and cut ties with him without a second thought. I was the one who stepped forward to take her place, becoming the laughingstock of our social circle. I smoothed away all the hardness in him, tried to shape myself into the woman he liked, and swallowed countless moments of bitterness, hoping only to warm his distant heart. Until our wedding day. A car accident happened, and Calvin's first instinct was to shield my sister with his whole body. "Rebecca, don't be scared. Where are you hurt? We'll get you to the hospital right away!" He carried her into the ambulance without so much as glancing back at me. I looked down at the iron rod piercing my chest and felt warm blood gush out. It was only then I understood. He was not indifferent by nature, he was simply indifferent to me. When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day Calvin came to our house carrying the engagement gift.
