Thessaly Warrington has always known something was different about her, even if she could not name what. The brooch she received on her twenty-fifth birthday warms when no one is looking. The garden at her mother’s country estate blooms in colors that should not survive the season. The wolfhound at her side has been hers since the night she was placed at a witch’s door as a newborn — a child with a brooch, a name, and nothing else.

For twenty-five years, she has lived quietly. She has been raised alongside her brother. She has been trained by witches to fight things she could not name. She has never asked where she came from. She assumed the answer didn’t matter.

She was wrong.

The shadows that breach her mother’s wall on the night of her birthday do not stop at the threshold. They come for her. And when Thessaly steps through to the other side, she arrives in a fae court that does not know she exists, in a world where the sky never moves past dusk, in front of a crown prince who recognizes what she is the moment he sees her.

The courts have been waiting twenty-five years for the heir they raised.

The throne has been waiting for the daughter they did not.

The Wrong Daughter is the first novel in The Vesper Throne Series — a slow-burn adult fantasy romance trilogy of stolen inheritances, dangerous princes, and a heroine who was never meant to come home.
