Placed 2nd place in fantasy in The Tattoo Awards
Mix of high fantasy and contemporary fantasy with lots of action, adventure, and romance. This book alternates between the characters' pasts and present.
Lets start at the beginning, with the death of Her,
The echo of futures, even the Gods could not deter.
Her dead body ripped away, from the arms of love, her mate,
To a reality, one she could only hate.
While Her memories were locked, she struggled in her new forsaken life,
His memories tore him to pieces, her death, his love, only strife.
With memories of Them, in battle, bed, and all that life offered,
His family worried, his heart and mind to suffer.
Two warriors, two hearts, forged together as one were they
But now they battle alone- until that glorious day.
In a quest born of hope and pain, he found the truth,
For the end may not be the true, once the Gods get to you.
Sera has spent her life in Pondmire, a village where the future is set: marry, work the fields, and never dream beyond the horizon.
But when a reckless prince unknowingly calls upon an ancient goddess, it's not a divine warrior who answers-
It's her.
Thrown into a world of war, forgotten gods, and a crumbling kingdom, Sera is forced to travel with Eryx, the future king of Pernath, who is convinced she is more than just a farm girl.
But the gods have been silent for centuries, their names lost to myth, their magic long gone. Sera refuses to believe she could be the missing piece in a war she never asked for.
Yet, as she journeys through the Piclan Wilds, Pernath's grand halls, and an armory of relics that whisper of a past she doesn't remember, the name Pali-the Goddess of the Fight-stirs something inside her.
And when long-dead magic awakens at her touch, Sera faces an impossible choice:
Accept the truth of who she was... or run from the war she was born to end.
