Book One of The Lost Warriors
Magic is her curse. Desire is her weapon.
Condemned by fire and bound by blood, Princess Ella conceals forbidden magic in a court ruled by fear. When an ancient force awakens within her, it stirs more than power—it awakens desire, dangerous and consuming.
Caught between two brothers—one who tempts her body, the other who tests her heart—Ella is drawn into a deadly web of lust, loyalty, and zeal, as a malignant conspiracy festers in the heart of Ycelt. But her magic has a will of its own, warping the hearts of those she loves and threatening to turn salvation into ruin.
As desire and deceit entwine, her greatest danger isn’t the pyre—it’s the power she’s been taught to hate. In a world that burns witches, she’s about to start the fire.
