Between These Broken Hearts

Between These Broken Hearts concludes the Cursed Stars duology and notably wraps up the thrilling Hollow Vows storyline.

In Elora, unrest is growing. Whispers in the Fae Courts speak of Mordeus reclaiming the Unseelie throne, and the Banshee’s cry foretells impending death. As the story begins, the fate of the human realm and fae courts appears grim. The cursed princess is losing herself to the spellbinding charm of the Enchanted lady. The reluctant assassin has been stripped of her glamour and is at the mercy of those pursuing her fate. Meanwhile, the human Queen is missing and presumed dead. The distinct paths of the characters continue to intersect chaotically as illusions are unraveled, bargains are struck, and necessary betrayals reveal hidden truths. With time running out, everyone must make choices about love, duty, and accepting fate.

Although the story resumes immediately after the dramatic cliffhanger from the previous book, the pace slows considerably. The multiple storylines and interactions between characters can, at times, feel repetitive as scenes are retold across different groups. The pace accelerates significantly in the final chapters as elements come together and both internal an eternal battles unfold.
