A Fragile Enchantment

Niamh Ó Conchobhair is a seamstress whose rare magic lets her weave emotions and memories into fabric, though that same magic shortens her life. Hoping to secure her family's future, she accepts a commission to design the wardrobe for a royal wedding in the neighboring kingdom of Avaland. There she finds a court troubled by class tensions beneath its glittering surface, and a reluctant groom, Kit Carmine, bound to a political marriage. As Niamh and Kit grow closer, an anonymous columnist threatens to expose them unless Niamh helps uncover the royal family's hidden secrets.
