She is a monster, a nightmare, a killer, who dreams of an ancient battlefield and a different, brutal world where stars fall and dark blood stains the earth. Kye Merran is an Ember, one who wields fire magic. When a childhood friend shows up at his house with a strange girl who is bleeding black blood, he knows that he's getting into something he definitely shouldn't. Especially when the Dark King of Rurik, who may have much more to him than it seems, is looking to conquer another kingdom or two, preferably with a powerful, dark queen at his side. But Kye can't seem to stay away from the mysterious girl with the blood of Darkness. And Val can't stay away from Kye either, no matter how much she claims that she hates him. As Val, Kye, and their friends race to stop the Dark King and his approaching army, what they don't realize is that they are playing a part in an ancient, deadly game, a game between the light and the dark, one years in the making. But it is a game which neither of them can win, for their fates have already been determined by the desperate Gods, written in blood among the stars.

When Tara crosses the border into a forbidden kingdom her entire life is turned upside down. The captain of the guard drags her into a new world and as forbidden feelings start to develop, she's not sure she can control them. As secrets of Tara's past begin to unfurl, she seeks to uncover the hidden evils of the King of the West, and begins to discover powers she never knew could exist. *** "I'm not scared of you" She snapped, looking behind her, calculating how much of a head start she'd get if she threw her knife into his leg. The boy, as if reading her thoughts, moved quickly forwards, before grabbing hold of her arm. He pulled her towards him, and Tara was forced to lean against his chest "Then let me remind you" he snarled into her ear. "You Tara, are working with the King from the East Kingdom. And I? I'm working with his worst enemy. Which means" he said, "that you too are my enemy". Tara shuddered. "Does this mean you're not going to tell me your name?". The boy chuckled dangerously, "Oh yes". He moved forwards, so he was able to whisper in her ear. "I'm Kyden. And I'm the Captain of the Guard in the West Kingdom".
