Queen of Stars
Mariel Araya
What happens when an underestimated noblewoman refuses to bow to a merciless king?
He is the victorious war king.
She is a noblewoman whose beauty and background were supposed to win her a choice of futures.
Instead, Solstice is the last woman Callisto wants for his wife, and he is her only option in the aftermath of war.
Solstice arrives at Star Court with nothing but her ocean-soaked bags. Betrothed to King Callisto—a ruler as magnetic as he is merciless—she’s thrust into a world of dazzling cruelty, where one misstep could cost her everything. When her humiliation at a victory celebration turns to open defiance, Solstice sparks a dangerous fascination in Callisto, setting off a battle of wills that could remake a kingdom.
After a brutal attack leaves her broken but not defeated, Callisto’s icy resolve cracks, binding their fates in ways neither anticipated. As passion and trust grow in the shadow of betrayal, Solstice must navigate shifting alliances and the King’s own conflicted heart.
For readers drawn to steamy power dynamics, court intrigue, resilient heroines, and dominant men, Queen of Stars is a romance that tells a story of vulnerability, power, and the courage to demand more than what fate has offered.
