YOU’LL FIND
Becoming the hero of Roanfire has brought young Keatep Brendagger as many problems as it has solved. Her newfound fame has made her a prize for many, including a neighboring kingdom that could save her war-torn country.
The problem is, she didn’t do it.
The power that saved her people belonged to an ancient evil that has taken hold of the man she never thought she’d fall for: Ikane Ormand, a Leviathan Pirate Prince.
When the darkness inside of him drives him to a mad attempt on her life, she knows she’s running out of time before he’s consumed forever.
Defying orders and risking everything to reclaim Ikane’s freedom, her quest leads her to answers best left hidden, and a darkness about herself that could destroy everything she’s fought for.
Tortured by guilt, and torn between love and duty, Kea risks everything to save her world.
But even that might not be enough.
In a desperate attempt to save Ikane, Keatep Brendagger allowed magic to consume her. Now it has cost her everything.
Harrowed by grief and guilt, Kea struggles to accept the gentle tutelage of the rogue assassin, Broderick Ironshade, as he shows her how to keep the dangerous power subdued.
But his guidance is thrown into question when a mysterious man appears with the ability to control the power she cannot. The stranger promises her that the power she possesses can do more than save the man she loves. With the right training, it can make her unstoppable.
With her trust in Broderick shaken and blurring lines of right and wrong, Kea must decide who to believe. Her choices will determine who she becomes, and the fate of everything she has vowed to protect. In the end, the price of her awakening could be the kingdom’s undoing.
Keatep Brendagger’s powers have both saved and scarred those she loves. But this time it has gone too far.
Her ill-fated attempt to shatter the cursed ruby and protect the queen’s unborn child has left her best friend and brother-in-arms in a strange death-like slumber. The telltale white streak in his hair stands as a grim reminder of how close she came to taking his life.
Now, she mourns with the rest of the kingdom as word of the king’s demise and the abduction of the expecting queen spread across the realm.
When news of the Tolean ambassador’s impending visit reaches the unprepared court, the kingdom flies into panic over an heirless throne, and they turn to Kea for answers.
But Kea knows there is more at stake. The unborn child is everything. Not only for Roanfire’s future, but the chosen key to the ruby’s nefarious plan to be reborn an immortal goddess of fire. Stopping this rebirth will require a sacrifice larger than Kea can bear; her friends.
How can she save her home without becoming worse than the evil she seeks to destroy?
