Fall to Shadow by Jac-Ann Marie

Ravaged by twenty years of war, the Riphean Realm is cleaved in two; the bleak and broken Kingdom of Kveld and the wild northern Land of Ellyl. In the ancient fortress of Braach Querie, Rieave finds a sliver of hope and friendship in Jace and Marie, orphaned trainees in the king’s elite force of warriors. Upon the ashes of his brother's death, Rieave is crowned the Dark Prince. His dreams of a different life shatter as he is swept up in a storm of betrayal, manipulation, anxiety, and Shadow magic. Poised to become the mightiest warrior in the King's Army and paired Luhkaela to the prince, Marie is dragged away and held hostage by their mortal enemies, the brutal Light Fae. As she uncovers the truths of her heritage and fae history, she realizes that not everything is as it seems. On opposite sides of Light and Dark, Rieave traverses more than mythological creatures and magic in his determination to save Marie. While the specter of peace looms on the horizon, she endeavors to bridge the chasm between the species and end the war by saving Rieave from himself. Rescue turns rampage and hope fades to oblivion in the face of a depthless darkness.
