Once Upon A Midnight Walk

About this book

Agnes Peregreene lives a life defined by sacrifice, having dedicated herself to protecting her younger sister, Solomia, since their mother’s death. When Solomia is callously betrothed to a dangerous man with a reputation for murdering his wives, Agnes faces a heartbreaking ultimatum. To secure her sister’s freedom and escape her own impending death sentence, she strikes a desperate bargain with the Aclanian king: she must journey into Nocturna, a perilous realm of eternal night, to retrieve a legendary, long-lost talisman. Once inside the shadows of Nocturna, Agnes discovers a world vastly different from the sun-drenched kingdom she calls home. Her survival depends entirely on her sharp intellect and an unexpected, forced partnership with Odeon Nox, a wealthy and enigmatic man guarding dark, long-buried secrets. As they navigate the dangers of this atmospheric realm, their relationship shifts from wary suspicion to magnetic tension. Featuring the beloved enemies-to-lovers trope, this slow-burn romance is packed with sharp banter, high-stakes angst, and a touch of historical flair. As Agnes inches closer to the truth about Nocturna, she realizes that the price of her sister’s safety may be a sacrifice she never saw coming.
