The Fractured Hollow

She was sent to marry a monster.
The Crown lied about which kind.

Dark Romantasy by Ember Gold

A Note From Ember


Dear Readers,

This story is rooted in a single, unsettling truth: devotion and dominance can wear the same face, and the line between protection and possession is often crossed in the name of love.

The Fractured Hollow is an enemies-to-lovers, slow-burn romance built on forced proximity and buried power. It is about two people cast on opposite sides of a lie, drawn together by tension, defiance, and a pull that is as dangerous as it is inevitable. It is about desire that grows in confinement, loyalty tested by truth, and the way darkness can become a language of intimacy.

This is not a gentle love story. It is a story of restraint, resistance, and the kind of connection that forms when two wills refuse to bow.

I hope the truth reveals itself when it can no longer be denied.
