STARCROSSED
"What if this storm ends? And leaves us nothing except a memory, a distant echo?"

Starlester and Dawnmore are two kingdoms at war. After a long history of betrayal, thievery, and undermining, the Queen of Dawnmore sends assassins after the royal family of Starlester. Princess Lavina, under a disguise, is attacked -- but she is rescued by Lady Denzell of Dawnmore, who was unaware of the assassination plans and was not wearing their usual attire. While the two continue to meet and begin to fall for one another, their kingdoms declare war.

Lord Denzell must fight in the war against Starlester. Princess Lavina must keep performing

her royal duty as the war strategist, all while ensuring that nobody suspects a thing. She is engaged to Prince Dusk of Sunrest, after all -- only for political reasons, and both parties are aware of it, but nobody else is.

As the war continues and tensions continue to rise between kingdoms, Denzell and Lavina have an important decision to make. They could keep meeting up, betraying their kingdoms and lying to their loved ones, or they could call it off before it gets worse, focusing on what really matters and leaving each other behind. Oh, but a goodbye kiss couldn't hurt, right?
