War took everything from Alkina-her homeland, her family, and even the man who once promised her forever. Alone and unwanted, she wanders into the shadowed forests of Scotland, where myths are said to breathe beneath the roots. There, she stumbles upon a forgotten portal and falls into Myreneth-an ancient elven kingdom ruled by beauty, cruelty, and cold immortal law.
Its ruler, King Celedrel, despises her on sight. To him, mortals are abominations, destined only for dust. He commands her death. Yet Alkina survives every punishment, every exile, every cruelty his people cast upon her. She endures.
But survival has a cost. As Alkina struggles against the kingdom's scorn, she uncovers whispers of the Ashen Crown-an ancient power bound to the Door between realms. It is awakening, and it craves a mortal host.
Now Alkina must decide: return to a mortal world that cast her aside, or embrace the very destiny the elves fear. And as Celedrel's icy hatred begins to crack into something far more dangerous, Alkina will learn that love-like war-can burn kingdoms to ash.

A Crown of Ash and Echoes
The Shattered Crowns Trilogy continues in Book II - A Crown of Ash and Echoes, "Every crown carries echoes of the lies it was built upon." When Aurora Valenstar wakes in the dead lands beyond the Border, she believes she's the last living remnant of a kingdom gone to ash. But the truth waiting in the shadows is far crueler. She has not been stolen by monsters - she has been delivered to them. The realm of the Fae, once dismissed as myth, breathes again in ruin and vengeance. Its ruler, the enigmatic and terrifying Shadow-Crowned King, claims Aurora's blood is the key to restoring what her father destroyed centuries ago. As Aurora begins to piece together the truth of her captivity, every thread of loyalty she's ever known begins to unravel. Her father - the Peacekeeper, the healer, the man she once believed incapable of cruelty - waged a silent war of genocide. The "monster" she was taught to fear was not the one beneath her bed, but the one sitting on her father's throne. And as the veil between light and shadow thins, she begins to understand the depth of his sins - and the cost of the peace he built upon stolen lives. Worse still, Aurora's heart fractures with a second betrayal: her first love, long thought dead, lives. Alexander Darksong - the boy who once called her Little Star - now stands at the right hand of the very king who took her. His survival is not a miracle. It's a wound. He is no longer hers, and the loyalty in his violet eyes now belongs to her enemies. Between the Fae who see her as salvation, the king who sees her as a weapon, and the ghosts of two men who broke her heart in different ways, Aurora must decide what she truly stands for. Will she fight for the kingdom that raised her on lies, or the people her blood was taught to hate? As old gods stir and crowns crack under the weight of their secrets, Aurora learns that monsters are not born - they're made. And sometimes, they wear the face of the man who once kissed you goodnight.Complete

-sample- "Answer my question and I would more than love to continue." I find myself nodding frantically and his chuckle echoes in his body. "Use your words." I find myself blushing again but I say nothing. He pulls a breath away from me. When I continue to say nothing he leans back down, briefly brushing his lips over mine with no pressure behind it. His hand on the base of my neck moves up slightly, tilting my head back to his side so my neck is to him. His fingertips brushing over my skin sends a large wave of tingles through me and I can't suppress the shudder that leaves me. He brushes his nose against my neck and I tighten my fisted hand to a point of pain. His hand on my waist quickly goes to my fisted knuckles and smooths them out onto his chest once again.
