As an fully independent author all money paid goes directly to me (minus taxes, of course) Thank you SO MUCH for your support! Every dollar spent goes directly to paying my utility bills and keeping a roof over me and my family. Thank you again, from the bottom of my heart!

Blurb

Power is rising. Kingdoms are shifting. And five lives are caught in the storm.

Ara Palacios flees to Narice, desperate to uncover the truth about the dangerous power surging through her veins. But the answers she finds reveal a destiny darker — and more terrifying — than she ever imagined.

Ricci Lorette, once draped in silk and diamonds, now runs for her life with only her wits and a loyal Shadow by her side after escaping the blood-soaked massacre in Hamra. Survival isn’t just a battle — it’s a game, and luckily Ricci knows how to bluff.

Ishmo Lyf, determined to prove he’s more than a commoner with a bow, recruits Bran to help him take down a corrupt castle guard and prove his worth to The Captain. But Bran is interested in his own tests--ones that could be harder to pass than Hurt’s.

Meanwhile, Lin Lorette, heir to the throne of Narice, spirals under the weight of his crown and his own mind. As his coming-of-age ceremony looms, Lin must learn to let his friends pull him from the darkness — or risk losing himself entirely.
