Overview:
A Song of Ash and Moonlight is Claire Legrand's steamy, slow-burn enemies-to-lovers fantasy romance, book two in The Middlemist Trilogy. Following her New York Times bestselling adult debut, A Crown of Ivy and Glass, Legrand returns to the war-scarred realm of the Middlemist for Farrin Ashbourne's story. Rich world-building, political intrigue, and a fiercely magnetic romance make this paperback a must-have for fans of Naomi Novik, A Court of Thorns and Roses, and Bridgerton-style romantasy.

About the Book:
The old war is over, but a new one is only just beginning. The curse that once plagued the Ashbourne and Bask families has finally been broken, yet Farrin, the eldest Ashbourne daughter, cannot find peace. Unflappable, dutiful, and quietly exhausted, Farrin has spent years holding her fractured family together while guarding a dangerous musical power she dares not unleash. Ryder Bask is everything she has been raised to resent: stubborn, magnetic, and infuriatingly perceptive, tired of his own family's feuding and burdened by a secret anger that mirrors her own frustration. As the Middlemist weakens with every rising dawn, anointed magicians vanish, a fiery Olden creature stalks Farrin, and strange visions haunt the High Queen Yvaine, Farrin must learn to work with the one man she was taught to hate. What begins as wary alliance slowly deepens into something neither of them can deny. Claire Legrand blends lyrical prose with sharp, emotionally charged storytelling, weaving political stakes with intimate, character-driven romance. Readers who love slow-burn tension, clever banter, hard-won trust, and richly textured fantasy worlds will find themselves completely swept away by Farrin and Ryder's journey. This is romantasy at its most immersive: lush, dangerous, and deeply felt.
