A Cinderella retelling about love, sacrifice, and the kind of magic that asks what you’re willing to lose to save the ones you love.

When Lyra Treveon falls too ill to attend the royal ball, her best friend Lucinda Blackthorn agrees to go in her place. Disguised behind a mask and wrapped in a midnight-blue gown, Luci dances beneath chandeliers and loses her heart to Prince Ira Vencia, a man who makes her believe, just for one night, that she belongs in his world.
But when the mask comes off, Ira believes it was Lyra he met at the ball—and soon announces his engagement to her. Bound by loyalty and guilt, Luci keeps her secret to protect her friend’s fragile health and reputation. Yet as Luci and Ira are drawn together again—this time by a desperate journey to find the mythical Midnight Flower, said to cure any illness—the truth between them becomes impossible to ignore.
As love blooms in the shadow of a lie, Luci must decide what she’s willing to sacrifice: her heart, her future, or the girl who has always been her family.

Tender, romantic, and threaded with forgotten magic, Midnight is a cozy Cinderella retelling about friendship, forbidden love, and finding courage when the clock runs out.
