A princess determined to be won, a prince strangled by duty, a sabotaged magic In Elowen’s world, every movement stirs an invisible gust of magic. But as a princess, she’s never been encouraged to study the craft. Her role is to marry for alliance, a necessity she’s accepted…mostly. If only the dutiful seriousness of her betrothed didn’t blind him to the fact that she still has a heart to be won. Prince Theodore is used to bearing others’ responsibilities, given his older brother’s tendency to disappear. He’s never yet failed to silence the distraction of emotions and do his duty. So why do both Elowen and the promised alliance feel out of his reach? And why is his failure slowly crushing him? With the magic of the land tilting steadily out of balance, and a series of disasters threatening the fragile peace between their kingdoms, the pair can’t afford to focus on matters of the heart. But they’re in greater danger than they know. Only when the threat becomes personal does Theo realize the truth—he’d give anything not to lose the princess he never fully had. Even his heart. A Treacherous Motion is the first book in YA fantasy romance series Magic of Dust and Movement. In the land of Ryki, magic is generated by movement, and peace is precarious. Each book features a different couple and plenty of sweet romance, unique magic, and heart-stopping adventure as they fight for their kingdoms and their hearts.

Deborah Grace White was more or less born reading. She grew up on a wide range of books, from classic literature to light-hearted romps. Her love of fantasy was inevitable from the time her father read the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy to her and her siblings when she was four years old. The love of reading has traveled with her unchanged across multiple continents, and carried her from her own childhood all the way to having children of her own. But if reading is like looking through a window into a magical and beautiful world, beginning to write her own stories was like discovering she could open that window and climb right out into fantasyland. Now she gets to live that childhood dream from her hometown of Adelaide, Australia, where she lives with her husband and their three little ones.
