Quand la New Romance s'empare du mythe du Roi Midas

« L'or. Planchers d'or, murs d'or, meubles d'or, vêtements d'or. À Highbell, dans le château construit au coeur des montagnes gelées, tout est fait d'or. Même moi. » À 15 ans, Auren a échappé à un sombre destin en étant recueillie par le roi Midas, qui transforme tout ce qu'il touche en or. Depuis dix ans, elle se sent choyée et protégée des dangers à l'intérieur de sa cage dorée. Et surtout, elle voue au roi Midas un amour sans limites. Jusqu'à ce que la guerre menace le royaume de Highbell. Pour s'assurer la victoire, Midas décide de passer un accord aux dépens d'Auren. Soudain, les certitudes d'Auren volent en éclats. Sa confiance est brisée, son amour remis en question. Et si tout ce qu'elle pensait savoir sur Midas se révélait faux ?

The fae abandoned this world to us. And the ones with power rule.

Gold.

Gold floors, gold walls, gold furniture, gold clothes. In Highbell, in the castle built into the frozen mountains, everything is made of gold.

Even me.

King Midas rescued me. Dug me out of the slums and placed me on a pedestal. I’m called his precious. His favored. I’m the woman he Gold-Touched to show everyone that I belong to him. To show how powerful he is. He gave me protection, and I gave him my heart. And even though I don’t leave the confines of the palace, I’m safe.

Until war comes to the kingdom and a deal is struck.

Suddenly, my trust is broken. My love is challenged. And I realize that everything I thought I knew about Midas might be wrong.

Because these bars I’m kept in, no matter how gilded, are still just a cage. But the monsters on the other side might make me wish I’d never left.

The myth of King Midas reimagined. This compelling adult fantasy series is as addictive as it is unexpected. With romance, intrigue, and danger, the gilded world of Orea will grip you from the very first page.
