Moonfire & Midnight Pt 2 by asherrowe

An exiled princess, a poisoned husband, and a battle for power-Eirian Soliel refuses to be forgotten, but can she turn a cold marriage into a fiery alliance before it's too late? First cousin to the King and the darling of the Court of Sorrow, Eirian has spent most of her life indulging all her whims and fantasies under the protection of her royal blood, but when her father's sudden re-marriage results in a son, she finds herself suddenly shuffled aside. On top of that, her longtime on-and-off romantic partner suddenly betrays her. Instead of proposing to her, he shows up to her birthday ball, married to a low-ranked Lady without a word of warning. Eirian's life is upended, and her stepmother succeeds in exiling her into an arranged marriage with a general who never leaves the distant borderland. Regimented, completely disinterested in the capitol and the Court, and dying from a poison no one can identify, her new husband would rather continue his simple life with his mistress than welcome his new wife, but Eirian refuses to go down without fight. Determined to make a place for herself if she cannot find one, Eirian finds herself facing an enemy she never expected, and she underestimates her shy, gentle husband. Will the General fall for his vivacious Princess, or will Eirian be set aside again?

Winding Dawn (Dusk Series - Book 9) by AmeliaCrossGE

Eliza Lovell has lived a dangerous life, inducted into the hunter organization as a child and hunting vampires since she could walk. Though she wouldn't say she was unhappy. Nothing was more satisfying than sinking her spell-forged blades into the monsters that stalked and terrorized human kind. What she did was a service. It gave her purpose to get up in the morning and sound sleep at night. That was until she met her match with a deceptively alluring vampire named Ezra, and the world around her twists in new and dangerous ways. Vampire corpses begin to surface around town, drained of their blood, and the fingers are pointed at the hunter organization. Eliza had nothing to do with such grotesque displays of depravity, and neither did the hunters, but she doesn't like the sins of others painted on her back. To end the violence and to clear her name, she embarks on a journey to root out the evil poisoning her city. ~~~~~~~~~~~ Alec de Fluer is new to his role as a leader of the Fleurs, but peacekeeping has been in his blood since he was a child. When others fought, he sought to ease their quarrels and help them find peace, as he did now in the tumultuous society that was rebuilding before him. Someone is draining vampires of their blood and hanging them up for display, but there is more to it than just hate. Remnants of Copse magic linger at the dump sites, powerful yet foreign. Though Alec is no longer a Copse, it falls on him to clear his former family's name, alongside his mate Idus and some more unconventional allies.

Although the shadow shifters have won the war, Rehan-the new king of both shifters and witches-faces problems at the border between their realms. Rebel witches have risen up, determined to reclaim their lost lands. Less concerned with the rebels and more troubled by the fractures splintering his own family, Rehan remains unmoved by the chaos. But when a trusted general summons him to the border, he stumbles upon an unexpected secret: a living, distant member of the witches' royal bloodline. One look from her ensnares him, igniting an inexplicable desire to claim her as his own. Yet with no explanation for this sudden, consuming pull, Rehan must decide: end the witch's life to ensure she can never challenge his rule, or surrender to the dangerous attraction that pulls them together.

Asteria by WordDreamer_18

Seraphina was never meant to be a weapon-until the shadows chose her. When her quiet life shatters, Sera is thrust into a world where ancient magic bleeds into every breath and monsters wear human faces. Trained by rebels who see her as their last hope, and haunted by a dragon who will never let her fall, she discovers her power is unlike anything Asteria has seen before-wild, dangerous, and bound to both light and shadow. But shadows have names. And one of them whispers to her in the dark. Rowan-the enemy prince cloaked in darkness, whose voice coils around her soul and tempts her with power, ruin, and a love as dangerous as it is forbidden. As war looms, Sera is torn between the light that could save the realm and the shadows that promise to claim her. Trust, betrayal, and desire blur until the line between enemy and ally vanishes, and she must decide: will she fight the darkness-or let it consume her? Perfect for fans of From Blood and Ash and Kingdom of the Wicked, this darkly romantic fantasy is filled with dragons, rebel courts, shadow magic, and a slow-burn romance that will set the night on fire.

The Last Ember by STUPED_LOVER

In a world scorched by war and shadow, Kaelin, a young woman from a forgotten village, becomes the reluctant bearer of a powerful ember - a mystical flame that holds the key to both destruction and renewal. After witnessing her home consumed by the monstrous Hunger, Kaelin embarks on a perilous journey to master the ember's power and rally scattered survivors against the creeping darkness. Guided by allies Bren and the enigmatic sage Veyrix, Kaelin confronts internal and external battles alike: the ember's fire threatens to consume her from within even as enemies gather beyond the horizon. Among these foes is Malrik, once her closest friend and fellow flamebearer, now corrupted and driven to claim the ember's power for himself. As the world teeters on the brink of annihilation, Kaelin must choose between wielding the ember as a weapon of vengeance or a beacon of hope. In a climactic battle marked by fire and shadow, she confronts Malrik-not just to defeat him, but to offer redemption. Together, they spark a fragile renewal that promises a future beyond ruin. The Last Ember is a story of sacrifice, friendship, and the eternal struggle between light and darkness - a journey from ashes to dawn, where the greatest power lies not in destruction, but in the courage to rebuild.
