Gild (The Plated Prisoner Book 1)
$18.99
Gild
by Raven Kennedy
A gilded cage is still a prison.
In a world where power is measured in gold and beauty is something to be owned, she lives a life that glitters on the surface… but suffocates beneath it.
Kept in a palace of luxury, surrounded by wealth beyond imagination, she is treasured—but not free. Every moment is controlled, every choice made for her, and every piece of her life belongs to someone else.
Until something shifts.
As cracks begin to form in the perfect, golden illusion, she starts to question everything she’s ever known—her place, her purpose, and the man she once trusted above all else.
Because sometimes the most dangerous thing isn’t the cage…
it’s realizing you were never meant to stay in it.
Dark, gripping, and emotionally powerful, Gild delivers a haunting romantasy filled with control, awakening, and the first sparks of rebellion.
