Eloise-a 22-year-old orphan taken in by the royal family of Ashenwood. Raised alongside Prince Ezra, the sole heir to the throne. As the kingdom teeters on the brink of collapse, Eloise's loyalty to the royal family is strained. 

Prince Ezra, stands as a symbol of duty and honor. Bound by the expectations of his father and their kingdom, Ezra is a soldier in a war he is beginning to question. His life has been a study in sacrifice, and his heart is weighed down by the brutal realities of his father's reign and the growing discontent among the people. 

As the war intensifies and the kingdom edges closer to chaos, Ezra and Eloise's relationship becomes increasingly fraught. Ezra is forced to confront the harsh truths about his father's rule and the legitimacy of the rebellion's claims, while Eloise grapples with the nature of her adversary and the depth of her feelings for the royal family. In a kingdom fractured and divided by war, their journey is a high-stakes battle of hearts and minds, where every decision could either pave the way for a new beginning or lead to devastating consequences.

~ COMPLETE AND NOW AVAILABLE ON AMAZON ~ In the Five Kingdoms of Saol Eile, magic is the only currency and those who have the most cast long shadows across the land. Amidst lavish parties, sumptuous banquets, and sprawling castles, despicable tyrants have risen, calling themselves kings by right; emperors, by the laws of old magic, and monarchs, by the wealth they've procured. When it's rumored that an army of flesh-eating monsters has risen from the shadows, tyrant-kings are forced to submit to a far more dangerous power - the sorcerer standing at the head of it all: The Cursed One. Orphaned and penniless, eighteen-year-old Cecily Trask's magic has always been reluctant to emerge. But with the kingdoms at the brink of war, she vows to do whatever it takes to keep her people safe-even if it means breaking all the rules, reaching into the depths of her soul to unravel the bindings around her true power, and allying with the potentially dangerous prince, Daire Niadh, to do it. In a landscape thick with mistrust, desire, and incipient hope, Cecily and Daire cross paths in an unfamiliar world forever changed by violent forces neither of them understand. They should hate each other. They should want each other dead. But their grief both draws them together and breaks them down, until all they have left is their shared goal - to defeat The Cursed One, even though for Cecily, the journey means almost certain death. ❧ Copyright © Marcella Colavecchio, 2014 - 2020.

***This is book two in the Royally Series, You MUST read book one (Royally Sheltered) FIRST before reading this. If you haven't read that, spoilers will be in this description.*** Catherine Carter has done what no one, including her, thought she would be able to do. She's gotten past a lot of her anxiety issues, made some friends, fallen in love, and has been named the top student of the Royal Academy. She's the first in line to become the next queen of Alumbridge, and be married to the Prince. Except, the Prince and her have had a falling out because of the secrets he's hidden from her. While they had originally fallen in love, Catherine can't tell if any of the actions or words of affirmation have been real. And with him being in on the protest she started against his establishment, she's feeling like she's been betrayed. Four months later, the Academy is opening back up, and Catherine is as numb and emotional as she's ever been. She feels eager to go back to continue her protest and see her friends, but she's also scared to go back and face the Prince who she still has overwhelming feelings towards. As antagonistic forces loom in the distance, and Catherine's protest gets closer and closer to becoming an event, Catherine has to confront everything that she's come to know and believe so far. She has to confront both the past actions and past emotions that she's been putting off dealing with for the past few months. She has to figure out a way to work with the Prince, who she'd rather not see ever again, and deal with the revelations regarding him. But most of all, Catherine has to decide if she wants to continue on her current life path, or make a decision that will change the trajectory of her life forever.

The Gifted, humans with unique abilities to affect the world around them, have all but become extinct thanks to the dark reign of a usurper. And somehow Zephyr Elvy has managed to live her nineteen years in the blissful quiet of a small town next to the sea. Zephyr has always been content to keep to herself, and happy to live a simple, if uneventful, life. If only the universe had that in mind for her. Forced to flee the only place she has ever called home, Zephyr finds herself running through a world she has only ever read about, along with two soldiers who have deserted their posts to keep their consciences clean. With only a letter and a mysterious weapon as clues to why she's being hunted, Zephyr must face her own fears while discovering a whole new world of terrors at the hands of a queen she knows next to nothing about. Having never risked anything her entire life, Zephyr is forced to choose between apathy or action, hiding and keeping to herself, as she has always done, or taking a leap that could change the world she is just now getting to see. ***** Thank you SO MUCH for reading!

Blurb { The kiss was fierce, possessive, his mouth claiming hers in a way that was wholly different from the fabricated memory she'd described. Her hands freed, she found herself pulling him closer, their breaths mingling. His hand slid down her back, pulling her against him. When they finally broke apart, they were both breathing heavily, their faces close as they took in each other's flushed expressions. Alaric looked into her eyes, an amused smile tugging at the corner of his mouth. "So," he murmured, his voice a low rumble, "was Caelon as good as me?" } Blurb 2 { "Your Highness," Cedric whispered, disbelief threading his tone, "With all due respect, do you really think it's wise to look at her like that with those lovey-dovey eyes, knowing she just insulted you?" }
