A Lady of Truth (The Great Balance World #0.5)

In a world of Balance, debts must be paid and change comes at a cost.

Eleya is well versed in the importance of keeping the Balance. To even the scales after her brother loses a fortune he doesn't have, she approaches the man he owes. Prince Dmir.

Dmir doesn’t know what to do with the lady sneaking into his room. She insists on an alternative method to repay her brother’s debt, but Dmir needs that money. He wants to fund Balanced inventions to bring progress to everyone in Plumei. As much as he is tempted to accept Eleya’s salacious proposal, he knows he shouldn’t. But maybe she can help him and work off the debt at the same time.

Eleya can’t help but commit fully to the principled, visionary prince once he shows her his plans. She will use all her powers, including a Balance-given ability to recognize the truth, to help him. But she can’t lie—she soon wants more than to repay the debt. She wants the prince himself.
