Why these tropes fit
In a world where the Veil has shielded humanity from the Fae of Alfhemr for nearly 400 years, a young woman tends gardens along the boundary between worlds, drawn to its shimmering magic. When the Veil shatters and the Wild Hunt pours through, her village is destroyed and she is marked by fae magic. The Mist Guard would rather kill fae-marked humans than let the fae take them, forcing her to flee on the eve of her twenty-first birthday. A fae-marked warrior named Caelum saves her from capture, and the two go on the run together as the fae close in. Their tentative alliance deepens into an all-consuming bond and a romance she knows she should not want, with dark forces gathering around them and a greater threat looming over them both.
