Publisher Description
Living an idyllic life in Wyoming, Thalia Clairmont is completely unaware that her world is about to be turned upside down. Step into the next dimension with The Shadow Princess, the newest story in The Chronicles of the Stone Veil series from New York Times bestselling author Sawyer Bennett.
My name is Thalia Clairmont and I am heir to the throne of Vyronas. A title that was unknown to me after the love of my life, Bastien Dunne, had me stripped of my memories and sent me through the veil into another dimension. He maintains it was for my protection after my parents were killed and our kingdom was overthrown, but I see it as a betrayal.
Overwhelmed by my feelings of both love and anger for Bastien, I quickly understand that things aren’t what they once were. Vyronas is at war and an evil sorceress has claimed my throne by casting her blood magic to subjugate my people. With my memories returned, I realize Bastien isn’t the man I once loved and has instead become a distant, hardened warrior whose heart is as cold as ice.
My magic alone cannot defeat the blood sorcery, so I delve into the deepest shadows to find a way to regain control of my kingdom. Can I defeat evil without succumbing to the darkness? And will Bastien and I be able to reclaim the love we once shared? I am the Shadow Princess and it’s time for me to reclaim my throne.
The Shadow Princess is a standalone second chance romance with a fantastical flourish within The Chronicles of the Stone Veil series.

Fantastic read!
Another great story from the Chronicles of Stone Veil! The Shadow Princess is chalked full of mystery, betrayal and sizzle chemistry. A love lost is found but not all is as it seems. Ms. Bennett did a excellent job of weaving mystery and fantasy together, the storyline was entertaining and the romance was heartfelt. Bastien and Thalia are perfect together.
A thrilling and captivating read
The Shadow Princess is a thrilling and captivating read that is perfect for those fantasy lovers who enjoy adventure, suspense, and of course romance. I was thrilled when I found out this author was diving back into the fantasy genre as The Chronicles of the Stone Veil is one of my favorite paranormal romance series. The Shadow Princess is a part of this series, but it is a complete standalone. The world building within this novel is magical and imaginative with all of the intricate details and rich descriptions of the characters, the landscape, and the fantastical world of Vyronas.
An original story, I thoroughly enjoyed all of the intrigue, action, and adventure that took place in this book along with the romance between Bastien and Thalia. Thalia is a strong and resilient heroine and I loved her immediately. Bastien’ s character is a tad more complex and it took me a bit longer to connect with him. These two have a complicated relationship and with so many outside and internal forces raining down on them, will they be able to find themselves back to each other and will they be able to take back Thalia’s birthright?
The Shadow Princess is a fast paced fantasy romance that kept me on the edge of my seat. The storyline was unique and the characters were well developed and interesting. This book is a definitely page turner and I truly hope that this author continues to write more novels within the series.
