Blurb — Born of Ash and Fire
Tagline: He came to use her. She turned him to ash instead.
She trusted him.
That was her first mistake—and the only one Arielle will never forgive.
In a world where the fae shine with sacred magic and northern wolf clans rule by fang and blood, Arielle belongs nowhere. She was never chosen by the light of her kind. She has no magic. No power. No value—except for the one the Faerie King placed on her before she was even born, bound in a bargain she was never meant to know.
Callen didn’t come to save her.
He came because she was the final piece in a revenge he’d spent fifteen years planning—a powerless girl with no allies and nowhere left to run. He knows exactly how to make her believe. How to make her feel chosen for the first time in her life. And when she starts to fall for him—he lets her.
Because it makes her easier to keep.
When the truth comes crashing down, Arielle runs—taking with her the one thing she can’t leave behind. The child growing inside her. The only proof that something between them was ever real.
And she falls straight into the hands of Lioren.
A fae prince with a perfect face and magic strong enough to bind her in light—a man who calls obsession love and doesn’t know the difference. There’s no escape. No way out. Only magic tightening around her every time she fights back, and his voice in her ear, soft and relentless, telling her she belongs to him.
Only him.
Until the moment she chooses to jump.
The water doesn’t kill her.
But what she loses in it—the small, unnamed life that never had the chance to be loved—almost does.
Almost.
Because from that loss, something ancient begins to wake inside her. Not fae magic—but something older. Wilder. Something that belongs to no one. The blood of a Fire Spirit—the power the Faerie King traded away, the sacrifice Fenrik has waited eighteen years to claim, and the force the eastern volcano is rising to reclaim.
And Arielle—the girl who learned to make herself small to survive—is done shrinking.
She’s learning to take up space.
With fire, if she has to.
With everything, if she has to.
Born of Ash and Fire is a dark fantasy romance for readers who love broken heroines, morally gray characters, and love that cuts as deep as it heals. There are no perfect heroes here. No simple villains. Only a world where power decides who gets to live—and who gets used.
And a girl who’s about to become something no one can control.
