In the cursed kingdom of Velmora, shadows walk the earth, and the night whispers secrets. Eira, a blacksmith's apprentice, discovers she is the reincarnation of a sorceress who doomed the land to eternal twilight. Haunted by her past life's atrocities and hunted by creatures known as the Forgotten, she must uncover the truth about the curse to save Velmora-and herself.

Forced into an uneasy alliance with Kael, an exiled prince hiding secrets of his own, Eira ventures into a world of ancient gods, deadly prophecies, and horrors lurking in the dark. But as her powers grow, so does the temptation to embrace the darkness within.

Will Eira save Velmora or become its greatest nightmare?

When Veia Phelde is cursed, she hardly expects the ruin it will invoke, but will breaking the curse come at a cost more than its worth in blood? +++ Veia Phelde had been satisfied with her life in her small cottage in the woods, never bothering anyone save for her job as a blacksmith's apprentice. But when she loses her job, Veia is forced out of her comfort zone only to run into a simple book that means so much more than she wants it to. With blank white pages and a title carved by knife, the single word that scars the leather can only be the work of fate, and the danger it contains... well, let's just say that's fate, too.

"Ebonshade" Book One of the "Nocturn of the Forgotten" Series In a world where the night hides more than shadows, Celestia Aldaine accidentally stumbles into a city that shouldn't exist-Noxbourne, a cursed place that awakens only after sunset and vanishes with the first rays of dawn. Trapped in its otherworldly beauty and treacherous secrets, she quickly realizes that this city is no dream. It is a prison, and escape is impossible. Worse yet, everyone she left behind-her family, her friends, her entire existence-no longer remembers her. The life she once lived is fading, and soon, even her own memories might slip through her fingers. But Noxbourne is not empty. Its people-Umbrosians, a cursed species tethered to eternal night-are bound by their own rules and a deadly history. At the center of it all is Caelum Velyne, a dark and enigmatic ruler whose piercing blue eyes hold mysteries as deep as the shadows themselves. From the moment their paths collide, tension crackles between them like fire and ice. As Celestia struggles to uncover the truth behind the curse that binds Noxbourne-and herself-she is forced to navigate a dangerous web of power, betrayal, and forbidden emotions. With time slipping away and her very existence at stake, Celestia must decide whether to fight for her freedom or surrender to the allure of the night-and the man who embodies its darkest desires. In this thrilling tale of forbidden love, ancient curses, and hidden truths, "Ebonshade" will transport you into a world where light is the enemy, love is a dangerous gamble, and the night never truly ends
Veiled in Light and Ruin by jemicahcolleen

Every year, Lyra's village gathers beneath the ancient statues of the Fates, offering prayers and sacrifices to keep the creeping darkness at bay. The Ruined Kingdom stands in the distance, a forbidden place where no one enters and no one leaves. A place ruled by a king who does not age, does not die, and does not care for the world beyond his walls. Lyra has never believed in fate, only in survival. With her mother's health failing, she is willing to do whatever it takes to save what little she has left. But when this year's ritual goes terribly wrong, Lyra is taken-ripped from the life she knows and thrust into the heart of a kingdom lost to time. There, she is told she has been chosen. That she, along with others, must vie for the favor of a king no one has seen in over a century. But something is wrong within the castle's walls. Whispers of the past haunt her steps, and the King-cold, untouchable, and shrouded in secrets-watches her too closely. As shadows stir and forgotten magic awakens, Lyra begins to question everything she's been told about the Ruined Kingdom. And, more importantly, about herself. Because the deeper she delves into the mystery of the King and the kingdom he rules behind the walls, the more she realizes: Some destinies are written in blood. And some fates are meant to be broken.
