Selena - The Twin Moons
A young orphan with unique powers is on the run from assassins alongside a mysterious young man. 🌙 When passion and power collide, nothing-not even a prophecy-can dictate the future. 🌙 Selena wasn't meant to exist. Newly arrived in a distant family, she discovers she carries the powers of two feuding Lunn lineages: telekinetics and telepaths. An impossible combination that inspires both awe and fear. Hunted and thrust into the center of an ancient, ambiguous prophecy, she's forced to ally with Nikolas, an elusive boy whose cunning and silence conceal dangerous secrets. Between mistrust, biting remarks, and attraction, neither dares to admit a fragile bond form. Essential. And ready to shatter at the slightest misstep. While the prophecy identifies her as the phoenix, it also cautions that through her, an evil force will awaken. The enigma persists: is this shadow an object, or a person? Amid betrayals and revelations, hatred and passion, Selena must find her place in a world where power is memory and emotion-and where love may prove her greatest weakness. 🌙 If you enjoy low-fantasy tales with romance, suspense, and unexpected twists, this novel is for you. 🌙 A huuge thank you to @BleuSaphir51 for the stunning cover (which I translated)!
