As the Crow Falls | ✔
Niccola is a demi-queen undercover in enemy territory. Her little sister went missing seven moons ago, but one lead remains: a picture of a woman's face, drawn by a diviner shortly after the disappearance. Tracking her down has led Niccola to Calis, the realm next door whose border with her own remains closed for a reason. There, the trail goes cold. Until, that is, Niccola runs into a man in the marketplace who bears a family resemblance to the woman she seeks. His name is Isaiah, crown prince of Calis, and he's investigating disappearances, too. They join forces, faking courtship to sneak Niccola into the palace and get Isaiah's wedding-minded mother off his back. It doesn't take long to suspect that a common threat might underpin both their realms' problems. And as Niccola begins to develop real feelings for Isaiah, she's faced with an impossible choice: reveal her secrets and risk breaking his trust, or leave him in order to chase down the woman who stole her sister... a woman whose forbidden magic comes with a cost that could bring both realms to ruin. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited.

In the ancient and mystical Kingdom of Yabla, where legends and magic intertwine, a dark curse long thought forgotten begins to stir.

Since then, Yabla has been ruled by rival lords and fragmented by warring factions.

His discovery awakens a dormant power that sends ripples across the land, attracting dark forces, including the immortal sorcerer Tavar, who seeks to reclaim the crown's power and plunge Yabla into chaos once more. Guided by Alistair, the last of the Obsidian Seekers-an order sworn to protect the crown-Aric embarks on a perilous journey across Yabla. As they navigate treacherous landscapes and evade dark hunters, Aric learns of his forgotten bloodline, one tied to the House of Valen, the very family sworn to guard the crown. With Tavar's forces closing in and the kingdom on the brink of war, Aric must decide whether to accept his destiny and confront the curse, or let Yabla fall to darkness. With time running out, the future of Yabla rests on Aric's shoulders. Can he unlock the secrets of his past, harness the power of the Obsidian Crown, and restore balance to the kingdom before it's too late? Or will Yabla's ancient curse be its undoing?Complete
