The Moon Raven

He was her first love. Now, he’s her only hope – and her greatest threat.

Disaris was a prodigy of the itzuli, a code breaker of the mind, until her world was traded away to a fanatic army. To save her sister, she accepted a hollow marriage to a monster, burying her past and the boy she once loved in the sands of a war-torn empire.

Bron was the Moon Raven, a battle mage of terrifying power who never forgot the girl who saw the man behind the scars. When he finds her buried in the rubble of a fallen citadel, he doesn’t see a captive – he sees the woman he’s been hunting for a decade.

But the girl he knew is gone, replaced by a woman bound by a deadly vow to a husband who will never let her go. Forced into a treacherous escape across enemy lines, Bron must decide: will he remain the loyal soldier of the Empire, or will he burn the world down to keep the promise he made to a young girl under a desert moon?

A slow burn fantasy romance for fans of The Serpent and the Wings of Night and The Bridge Kingdom.
