500 years ago, Yora went into magical stasis to escape her violent life as the Sage of Wrath. Now she’s awoken because a hunted dragon shifter needs help, but the last thing she wants is to go back to war.

She’d much rather stay in her cottage with the dragon, Zan, and eat every kind of ice cream she can imagine. Even if she knows better than to give in to the rush she feels around him… Dragons can’t mate with humans, and soon Zan will have to leave again.

But the dragon’s flight has brought danger to Yora’s doorstep. Dark powers are desperate to claim her destructive powers for themselves, and they’ll stop at nothing to bring her under their control.

Yora knows how to use her wrath to destroy. But if she can harness that same magic to build instead, maybe she can protect her found family in Crystal Hollow—and find a way to stay with Zan for all of their days, too.

Sage’s Sanctuary is full of dragon encounters, tender romance and hilarious banter, building community and having each other’s backs, and finding who you are and what you stand for.

Death. Eve can feel it in the frigid, icy air of the Unclaimed Wastes. She can see it in the treacherous blue eyes of a creature once believed to be myth. She can hear it echoing in the soul she had given to the grimoire for the promise of safety.

But soon, Eve realizes that one should never trust what is cursed. And now there are other terrors that loom before her. Ones of legends and lore, nightmares and tales as old as the Blood of the Blackthorn itself.

As the fallen goddess wakes from her centuries long slumber, the world of mortals and magic is rife with the wrath of her vengeance. The Age of Witchcraft has returned and with it a war that threatens all.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Rocio Carranza, a multi-genre writer, spent most of her youth with a book in her hand, consuming stories of fantasy and horror as if her life depended on it.

This naturally led into a love of writing stories as an excellent way to get lost in worlds of her own making—fighting epic battles, undoing curses (or casting them), and confronting the things that go bump in the night.

When she isn’t typing frivolously at her computer, you can find Rocio galivanting about Austin, TX with her husband and two kids or with her nose in at least five different books she likes to read at a time.

You can find Rocio on social media on IG/Threads/TikTok @rociocarranzawrites and Bluesky @rociocarranza.

She doesn’t know she’s a murderer.

From the moment she steps on campus, Kaitlin Gilbert enters a world she never knew existed—one where magic is hidden, and her power has been subdued. Trapped in a fog of blackouts, she quickly learns that dark family secrets refuse to stay buried.

When Kaitlin meets Finn, her brother’s best friend, lightning strikes and everything else explodes.

Finn Avery has always known about magic, but his dueling powers demand control.

When his connection to Kaitlin becomes impossible to ignore, he realizes she’s the other half of his Trium Perfectum, a fated bond that amplifies their strength, but could destroy them both.

With her brother at her side and a dangerous connection growing between her and Finn, Kaitlin must uncover the truth before her mother returns to finish what she started. Because if she doesn’t master the lightning inside her, someone else will—and it could destroy everything she loves.
