The Plated Prisoner Series, Book 1
In Highbell, a castle built into frozen mountains, everything is made of gold — the floors, the walls, the furniture, the clothes. Even Auren, King Midas's favoured, his precious, the woman he Gold-Touched to show the world she belongs to him.
Midas rescued her from the slums and placed her on a pedestal. She gave him her heart; he gave her protection. And even though she never leaves the confines of the palace, she is safe. Until war comes to the kingdom and a deal is struck — and suddenly, everything Auren thought she knew about Midas begins to unravel. Because these bars she's kept in, no matter how gilded, are still just a cage.
A dark fantasy romance steeped in mythology, Gild is a compelling reimagining of the Midas myth with addictive worldbuilding, unforgettable magical ribbons, and a toxic yet magnetic dynamic that keeps pages turning. Trending among readers who love morally grey kings, Stockholm syndrome tension, and the kind of story that lingers long after the last page.
Perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas (A Court of Thorns and Roses), Jennifer L. Armentrout (From Blood and Ash), and Holly Black (The Cruel Prince).
A paperback (2020) in Very Good condition — minor shelf wear, pages clean and intact, binding tight.
