Magic Like Fire

The crown killed his father; he will not let it take his sister.

Liam and Enya have not seen eye to eye about the crown in years. Liam’s hatred for the nobility burns hotter than any forge, but working for the barony that covertly aided in Da’s death is the only way to keep food on his family’s table. Now, the secret he swore to keep threatens to harm his sister.

Enya’s greatest dreams come to life when she is chosen to serve the princess as a handmaiden. Why she was selected is beyond her wildest imagination—but she is ready to embrace palace life with arms wide open, despite what her brother may think.

With Spring’s Nigh fast approaching, bringing the seasons to a violent change, Liam will use any means necessary to save Enya from the murderous hands of the crown… even the magic that consumed their father. 

Tricks and legends lie in wait. If Liam cannot rescue Enya, more than just their own lives will be at stake.

Preorders coming soon
