Ikafell sits on the edge of the world: a glittering halo of gold, glass and ice, glowing amidst the frozen wastelands of the South Pole. At the centre of the grandeur and snow is the Kallapekk; the home of the Royal Family, the court and Queen Leizel's most trusted wards, the Duchesses.
Vienna Ducaisia is one of them, a Duchess since she was found as an abandoned orphan. As beautiful and pure as snow that ever falls on her beloved city.
Her life is spent in the towering city skyscrapers and golden spires, amongst the glitz of stars and champagne. Her world of royal balls and airship cruises is leagues above the smoky alleyways and rust stained snow banks of the mafia that truly run Ikafell. The Smit family strangles the glimmering city from the shadows with their ever growing gangs of orphaned kids.
Ashe D'Arcy is one of them, a wretch of the streets since Lucrexia Smit found him as a howling baby left in a gutter. As downtrodden and cold as the slush that plagues his dark alleys.
When the impossible happens and the two meet Ashe vows to open Vienna's eyes to the city's harsh reality as she is determined to show him the beauty she still sees. But together they will shake the foundations of the city, for better or for worse....

Flame and Ice
In a world divided by fire and ice, two kingdoms stand locked in eternal war. To the south lies Arden, a realm forged from molten stone and searing flame, where warriors wield fire as both weapon and faith. To the north rises Lysandria, a glittering empire of frost and snow, where sorcerers bend ice and storm to their will. For centuries, their hatred has burned and frozen the land alike, rooted in an ancient myth that declared " Fire and Ice must never unite, or the world itself will fall". Kael Arden, known as the Flameborn, is a commander of unrivalled strength and the heir of Adren's throne. Hardened by war, his life is bound to duty, steel and fire. Ariella Lysandra, a princess and ice-sorceress, is as graceful as she is dangerous. Her beauty is glacial, her power feared, and her heart guarded by generations of enmity. When fate forces them together against a rising darkness-an ancient force that threatens to consume both kingdoms- Kael and Ariella must fight side by side. Bound by a magical oath, their lives become entwined: if one falls, so does the other. But as fire and frost collide, hatred gives way to something far more perilous: desire. Every glance ignites forbidden sparks, every touch blurs the line between enemy and lover. To love each other means to defy kingdoms, gods, and centuries of blood-soaked history. In a land where fire devours and ice destroys, can their passion forge a new destiny- or will it shatter their world forever?
