Do I have what it takes to avenge them?

Only time will tell

Seraphina prayed for a miracle. But the Lord on High sent him.

The war began the day 29-year-old Seraphina de la Croix became Elmoria's first ruling queen. Two hundred years of peace shattered in an instant–all because the world thought her too weak to hold her family's throne. She's determined to prove them wrong.

But Seraphina wasn't born to rule.

She was born to marry the King of Drakmor, Edmund Hargrave, and sit at his side as a mere consort. Now, thrust into a dangerous world of political intrigue and divine magic, Seraphina must end the war and save her people before it's too late. But with dark forces stirring and enemies threatening at all sides, she stands to lose far more than just her life should she fail to secure victory in this deadly war of crowns.

Especially when a new contender enters the arena: the true King of Drakmor, who supposedly died fifteen years ago.

Every Thread of Light: An Epic Dark Fantasy Romance (Whispers of Dust & Darkness Book 2)

Expected Publication Date: March 25, 2025

The thrilling dark fantasy romance sequel to Every Dark Shadow, about a realm where magic-born fight for freedom against the monarchy and the last living Descendant of her god line faces an alliance with her enemy to save them. Perfect for fans of fantasy books like Six of Crows and A Game of Thrones, as well as readers who love epic fantasy worlds filled with secrets, bargains, and betrayal.

In the Kingdom of Magus, Ophelia Dannan’s magic has reawakened, but at dire costs. Though she’s inherited the powers of a goddess, she’s haunted by the events in Wythe and the desperate choices she made to save the lives of her people.

As war breaks out, she and Falcon lick their wounds in the Underbelly, waiting for word on Hart and Rune. There, Ophelia plots to end the centuries-old battle for the throne by unearthing and destroying three elusive primordial relics—but she isn’t the only one who seeks them. If the Gray King retrieves the instruments first, the magic-born will rot in endless servitude, and if the relics fall into the Darkwielder’s hands, his vengeance may obliterate every mortal.

To save Magus from ruin, Ophelia finds herself making a bargain with a dangerous enemy—one that plunges her into a harrowing game of trust, politics, and dark secrets. To win, she’ll have to master her horrifying magic, mend her shattered soul, and decide how far she’ll go to shape her fate—or she and her kingdom will be destined for destruction.

When Abby Webber went on an Irish vacation, it was to spend time with her bestie, see a few castles, and drink Guinness. She didn’t expect to get marked for death by the Dullahan, nor that Erimon, the sexy biker who saved her life, would be an immortal warrior Druid. He gave her an essential part of his power, awakening her true purpose—to end the Dullahan’s chaos cycle for good.

Abby, still marked, and with the blood moon on the horizon heightening Death’s power, must band together with old friends and new to save herself and future generations from his wrath. There’s only one problem: the Dullahan isn’t working alone this time. Will Abby’s untapped magic and the indestructible eternal bond she’s formed with Erimon be enough to stop the ravenous Celtic death god? Or will failing to control her new powers doom them for eternity?
