Power, survival, and the cost of control

In Lumerath, magic is bound to the machinery of war: its most important wielders are held in death camps and treated as commodities. Lira has survived by keeping her power—and the danger it represents—buried. Once her abilities emerge, she is pulled into a struggle among factions seeking to claim, control, or kill her. The central tension links personal autonomy to the continent’s balance of power, while Lira’s forced expectation of a magical bond places that question in sharp focus. Fantasy and romance frame a story about survival, captivity, and what happens when a person made dangerous by their power refuses to be owned.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in fantasy-romance set amid a continent-wide war.
  • Readers drawn to stories about captivity, survival, and struggles for control over magical power.

Book overview

Control is the most seductive illusion

 

The most important magic wielders in Lumerath are bound and enslaved in death camps, reduced to commodities of war. Lira survives by serving her community and burying everything that makes her dangerous-until she erupts.

 

Taken from the camp by the mysterious leader of the war effort, she's expected to magically bond with him for the good of the continent, but Lira must figure out how to wield her power if she's going to avoid being owned again.

 

As the most powerful Lucent alive, Lira becomes the center of a war she never chose. Every faction wants to claim her, control her, or kill her in order to tip the balance of power.

 

Survival both ruined and shaped her.

The ways in which she's remade may break everything.
