Book 1 of the Emberfall Trilogy

Kael's life is shattered the moment he discovers a glowing shard in the ruins of a burned forest-a shard that pulses with an ancient, dangerous power. But this is no ordinary relic. It's the key to a war that's been waiting to ignite, and Kael's fate is bound to it in ways he never imagined.

Enter Lyra: advisor, warrior, and the one person who might know how to control the shard's fire. She's everything Kael needs... but also the one person he can't trust. Her secrets are as dark as the magic she wields, and the line between ally and enemy blurs with every passing day.

Visions of a floating city and the whispers of a forgotten revolution haunt them both, pushing them into a deadly game where nothing is as it seems. Magic. Betrayal. A city on the edge of ruin. In the Cradle of Cinders, no one is safe-and the fires are only just beginning.All Rights Reserved

But everything shatters when she's thrust into a secret world of vampires, witches, and ancient magic.
