Ebook DescriptionThe forest of Frostmere has always whispered secrets to Lyra Valemont. Raised in isolation by a mysterious guardian, Lyra has spent her life hiding from a past she does not understand. But when a dying royal messenger places an ancient key in her hands, everything changes. Hunted by the ruthless Ash Riders and pursued across a kingdom on the brink of collapse, Lyra discovers a truth buried for centuries-she is the last heir of a forgotten celestial bloodline.
Her only ally is Kael Draven, the feared Shadow Prince of Varethis. Cursed by dark magic and haunted by a destiny he cannot escape, Kael is everything Lyra should fear. Yet fate continues to draw them together. As ancient gods stir beyond the Veil and a long-forgotten prophecy awakens, Lyra and Kael uncover a terrifying secret: their powers were never meant to unite. Because when celestial fire and shadowfire become one, the Veil between worlds will open.
Kingdoms will burn. Gods will return. And a love cursed by fate may become the spark that destroys everything. Perfect for readers who love epic fantasy romance, enemies-to-lovers tension, ancient prophecies, dragons, magical kingdoms, and unforgettable slow-burn romance. The Veil of Ember & Moonlight is Book One in The Crown of Ashes Series.
