For twenty years, an uneasy peace has held. One unexpected alliance could destroy it. Kyla Malone has spent her entire life searching for a way to free the father she has never known. Then she meets Walker, a Spellcaster with every reason to help her... and every reason not to. Walker offers Kyla something she never thought she'd find: hope. But helping Kyla is Walker's only chance at the freedom he's been denied for just as long.
The closer Kyla comes to everything she's spent her life fighting for, the more she risks losing the person who made it possible. Perfect for readers of contemporary romantasy, urban fantasy, and slow-burn romance, Phoenix Rising is the first novel in the Phoenix Rising Sequence, where every generation inherits a story... but not every generation inherits the truth.
