When Cordelia awakens in the palace of a foreign king, she is promised only one thing: she may return to her husband in thirteen days—if she cooperates. But nothing in the halls of Chantera is what it seems. The courtiers smile with sharpened teeth. The elite watch her with eyes that gleam too bright. And something ancient stirs in the shadows of the palace, whispering truths no one dares speak aloud.
Entangled in a web of shifting loyalties and magical bargains, Cordelia must navigate the court's treacherous rituals and survive the attentions of a king whose motivations are anything but clear. As danger closes in, every step forward uncovers another layer of deception, and each day brings her closer to a choice that could reshape more than just her fate.
Perfect for fans of immersive worldbuilding, dark enchantments, and heroines who burn slow but fierce, Her Poisoned Mind is the first book in a richly woven fantasy trilogy where power is a performance, and trust can be deadly.
