In the powerful kingdom of Elyndor, Princess Lara Elias carries the heavy burden of being the sole heir to the throne. With her parents unable to conceive another child, Lara's future is entangled with the expectations of a nation and the greed of her manipulative uncle, Lord Alaric, who covets the crown for himself. To secure her position and protect her kingdom from her uncle's ambitions, Lara's parents arrange a marriage for her with Prince Kal of Valoria, a charming yet enigmatic prince from a distant land.

Lara, a fierce and independent young woman with floor-length light brown hair and a sharp wit, dreams of a life of freedom. But her world shatters when she learns of the arranged marriage, a union that will seal her fate as queen, but at the cost of her autonomy. Torn between duty and desire, Lara finds herself trapped in a role she never wanted, struggling to reconcile her inner turmoil with the expectations placed upon her.

As the wedding day approaches, Lara's resolve crumbles, leading to a breakdown where she violently rejects the constraints of her royal life. Yet, despite her fears, the marriage proceeds, and Lara finds herself bound to Prince Kal, a man who might be more of an ally than an adversary.

"Echoes of Her Past" is a tale of love, duty, and the struggle for identity in a world where power and tradition dictate every move. As Lara navigates the treacherous waters of royalty, she must decide whether to succumb to her destiny or fight for the life she truly desires. In a story filled with political intrigue, forbidden desires, and the weight of legacy, Lara's journey is one of self-discovery and the pursuit of freedom against all odds. (She's a bit mentally ill)

Book 1 in a series! Despite what Emrys has been told, her Kingdom Abneer was not the only one to survive, King Reyes is not the only monarch, and monsters are real. Previously a soldier for the King, now betrothed to his son, Prince Roan, Emrys Ortega is starting to feel the burden of the title she never wanted. After repeatedly sneaking out of the palace leads to a sinister threat from the King, Emrys begins to worry for her family's safety. So when she learns that one of her kingdom's soldiers has been kidnapped by the Queen of another Kingdom, Valoria, she sees this as her opportunity to redeem herself in the King's eyes and protect her family. The only problem is that she had no idea the Kingdom of Valoria even existed. In fact, the Kingdom is unlike her own.

Lira has lived her entire life as an outcast in the palace, under the cruel thumb of her stepmother, Queen Isolde, who rules the kingdom with an iron fist. Raised as an orphaned noble, Lira was told that her parents were mere servants who died when she was young. She has been repeatedly told that she has no power or potential. Her stepmother constantly belittles her, while her stepsister, Anya, delights in tormenting her at every opportunity. What Lira doesn't know is that she's the true heir to the throne-her real parents were the beloved king and queen, murdered by Isolde, their treacherous servant, who has claimed the crown for herself. To ensure Lira never threatens her reign, Isolde has kept her true identity hidden and has suppressed Lira's latent magical abilities, which would make her an unstoppable force.

But as she inches closer to discovering the truth, Isolde tightens her grip on the throne, sending her loyal followers to silence Lira forever. With her magic awakening and enemies closing in, Lira must decide whether to fight for her rightful place as queen-or let the darkness consume her before she ever has a chance to reclaim the crown.
