She must save her brother, even if it could cost Nessa her own life. With the help of an assassin and a general's daughter, they must hope that they can save him before it's too late.
But the closer they get to saving him, the more secrets are brought to the light. Is Matthias really the carefree king they thought he was?

A Bond of Blood
Aeris and Illeine did everything right. They discovered they were mates, fell in love, and lived happily ever after. For a little while. Everything changes when the couple discovers that their sacred bond is actually the artificial product of a horrible sacrifice. To Aeris, the connection that once seemed so pure and beautiful is now tainted by death, horror, and regret. For Illeine, the great tragedy is her not-so-fated mate's reaction to the revelation. The question of, "what if?" sends Aeris fleeing into the comfort of past, leaving a heartbroken Illeine to face the future alone. But she won't stay down. And she's going to make sure he truly understands what it means to live with regret. All she has to do it make sure she doesn't fall into her own trap.

This is the heart of House of Ash and Gold. ... What to expect: Slow-burn political fantasy with teeth Layered worldbuilding A subtle, mysterious magic system Romance threaded through ambition What NOT to Expect: Instant overpowered MC Fast-food pacing Harem or shallow romance One-note villains Endless exposition dumps

Born of Flames
Asterria has entered an era of renewal following the battle at Durga's How, but its sense of peace cannot be shared by those who heard the dire warning given by the gods.
