    Summary

    Set in the aftermath of ACOWAR and through ACOFAS, Ivy follows Elain Archeron as she navigates healing, identity, and a love that feels as inevitable as it is forbidden. Once promised to another, now trapped in a world she never chose, Elain finds herself drawn to Azriel, a male who is not her mate but who sees her in a way no one else does. Their growing friendship feels like something fragile, something forbidden.

    Like ivy creeping over stone, their bond forms quietly, persistently, in the spaces between grief and longing, between duty and desire. And once it takes root, there is no stopping it.

    Oh, goddamn
    My pain fits in the palm of your freezing hand
    Taking mine, but it's been promised to another
    Oh, I can't Stop you putting roots in my dreamland
    My house of stone, your ivy grows
    And now I'm covered in you
    Clover blooms in the fields
    Spring breaks loose, the time is near
    What would he do if he found us out?
    Crescent moon, coast is clear
    Spring breaks loose, but so does fear
