The Age of Embers.
In the shadowed dawn of the world, before mortal tongues sang of sorrow or glory, dragons ruled the skies as stewards of balance, born of flame and memory. Among them, Ignis, the Eternal Flame, bore the wisdom of ages, upholding harmony between sacred fire and the ever-changing world. But where fire glows, shadow rises, and mankind emerged from dust with the will to choose, forging a fragile place in a world not made for them.
What began in awe twisted into envy. Reverence soured into fear. And from fear, betrayal was born.
Thus fell the dragons, hunted and broken beneath steel and pride. The noble Solis deceived. The wrathful Caelum struck down. And at last, only Ignis remained-her fate entwined with a queen, whose choices would echo into legend.
Told in eight short, sweeping books, The Age of Embers is a tale of war and wisdom, of legacy and loss. It is the passing of an age... and the uncertain birth of another.
Yet even as the fire dims, one ember endures.
A dragon hatchling, Vaelith, born into silence and guided by a lone sage, awakens in the deep places of the world. And with him, a question rekindles:
Can fire, once broken by fear, rise in understanding?

A founding father, long patient, now bares their intent- to seize the throne by force, by cunning, by wagering all that is. Their House's malice toward the flawed Royal line can no longer be cloaked.

Our Forever Flame
Seventeen-year-old Princess Ember of the Phoenix Kingdom was born into an era of uneasy peace. For years, her people and the Dragon Kingdom have coexisted under a fragile truce, the remnants of ancient wars buried beneath a thin veil of diplomacy. But peace, like fire, is unpredictable-and all it takes is one spark to set everything ablaze. That spark ignites just days after Ember meets Nineteen-year-old Prince Xiodis. Their encounter is unplanned, their connection instant-two heirs from rival lands, drawn together by something deeper than duty or alliance. Ember is flame: fierce, impulsive, and full of heart. Xiodis is the calm before the storm: sharp, composed, and unshakably strong. In each other, they find something rare-understanding in a world that only expects obedience. But just as they begin to uncover what they truly mean to each other, Xiodis is betrothed to Princess Ella of the Wolf Kingdom, sealing an alliance that threatens everything he and Ember have begun to build in secret. Now, with the bonds of loyalty pulling them in opposite directions, Ember and Xiodis must choose: betray their hearts or betray their kingdoms. Because in a world where love is a liability, every choice comes with a cost. Our Forever Flame is a tale of love caught in the crossfire, of destiny rewritten, and of two hearts who dared to hope for more-even as the world around them burns.Complete
