Истории Dalcaine

(Book 5 in the fantasy series, The Crowns) Having watched Escarral's fall and grappling with her heartbreak with losing one she loved, Lyv struggles to keep her dark magic at bay. Knowledge is power in itself, though...and hidden within the depths of the Ayverian university library, she finds something that will twist everything they knew about Corliss on its head. For Jai, it didn't take long for him to figure out Lyv's light and dark magic were now intertwined. In watching her struggle, he knows he will do whatever it takes to help her, just as Corliss's mate Meron did before him. With their world threatened by Corliss's thirst for total darkness, they will do anything to figure out how to not only defeat her, but also rid Lyv of her own dark magic. For that to happen, though, they must dig into her past before the darkness took over...and learn what really happened straight from those who were there at the start of it all - Allel, Mik, and Kalla. But there are secrets even they kept from each other, secrets that take them all into lands unknown to get the answers they need before the final battle of darkness and light begins.

A princess thrown into a past she knew she would come to. A queen without a kingdom. An assassin whose past haunts her. And a sorceress who doesn't know who or what to believe. Four females and two timelines finally converge. With darkness and light and a fight with a god of death throughout worlds that will forever be changed.

(Book 1 in the fantasy series The Crowns) Alyvia is the youngest daughter of the king of Escarral, a land where magic is feared and hidden amongst the humans who possess it...and just happens to be one of those humans herself. When Lyv befriends a mapmaker and warrior from another land, she finds the friendship and belonging she's yearned for without having to hide. Amory is an emissary from Dalcaine, a land ruled by Fae and one Escarral had been at war with just twenty years before. Along with his best and oldest friend Gideon, he works alongside the Escarrali king in opening relations between the two continents. He was anticipating doing his job and going back home, not irrevocably tying himself to the human lands after meeting Lyv, one of the most powerful humans he'd ever come across. With her magic growing, Lyv gains help in controlling and mastering it with Amory's help. Amory has secrets of his own, though, including one that involves Dalcaine's Crown Prince Jai. But with rebellion brewing right under the king's nose at the hands of the queen, Lyv must fight to keep everything she loves safe or risk losing it all.

(Book 4 in the fantasy series The Crowns) Across the lands of Dalcaine, Escarral, and Ethran, Jai is leading the search for Lyv with nothing but whispers to guide him. In the months that passed, he and those around him had yet to lay eyes on her, but the rumors that find them brought gruesome accounts of all she has done under Corliss's control. Those rumors are truths for Lyv, even as she continues to fight Corliss in any way she can. Though the dark magic manipulates her every move, she remembers it all - the screams, the blood, the magic she pulls from every single one of the lives the darkness makes her take. But another is fighting that darkness with her and the hold Corliss has on them both. It was a prophecy neither one of them wanted to come true, but they know it is one they can fight and break, even separated. But with Corliss's reign of terror spreading, war is on the horizon and Jai and Lyv will do anything to stop it.

(Book 2 in the fantasy series The Crowns) The land of Escarral has changed in the past year for Alyvia with her mother now sitting on the throne. Lyv's mission in infiltrating the Fae land of Dalcaine has finally come. Now, in the capital city of Ayveri, she and her oath-sworn guardsmen and friend Gideon must find a way into the lives of the royal family and, most importantly, closer to Jai, the Crown Prince. With her magic finally free and stronger than before, it doesn't take long for her to attract the attention of the prince...but the wrong one. In the Fae land, Lyv's past, both recent and distant, are quick to catch up with her. And with an impending invasion of Escarrali forces, Lyv must be careful of the bonds she forms and help save a land that is more important to her than she ever knew before.

(Book 3 in the fantasy series The Crowns) Separated by two different continents, Lyv and Jai are still trying to cope with their loss and come to terms with the truths that changed their worlds. In Ethran, Lyv is on a journey to find herself again and fulfill her need to travel. In Dalcaine, Jai is struggling with the past and an uncertain future. Finally brought back together after months apart, along with Gideon and Thia, they set off across all three lands and a certain pirate island to answer questions that were raised after Queen Guinevere's attack on Asturia. However, they only end up finding more. A new foe has awakened with her intentions unclear, but there is something more to her cohorts Mik and Allel than they previously thought. And they will stop at nothing to get what their mistress wants - Lyv.
