UNDER THE LION STAR
Leor & Zialda
The King and Queen of the elven nation of Fjorn are dead. The country now looks to Leor for answers. The tenuous truce with the humans of Krannar balances on a knife’s edge, his siblings are in shambles, and his council is pressuring him to take a wife. All of this is further complicated by the discovery that someone has been trying to kill him since he returned from the battlefield.
Zialda has struggled to find a place for herself in the realm. Since her mother’s murder, she’s devoted herself to caring for her five younger sisters. As they all enter adulthood and chart their own paths, Zialda finds that she has no idea of what she wants for herself. When an unlikely opportunity presents itself, she seizes it. However, a threat lurks in the shadows that could shatter her new life before it even begins.

The sole survivor of the elven attack on her hometown, Naela flees for the capital city of Krannol to start fresh. Employed as a handmaid to the human Princess Kira, Naela tries her best to find her place in the world. The fledgling peace between the elves and humans is solidified with a marriage alliance between the princess of Krannar and the prince of Fjorn. However, Princess Kira has given her heart to another and decides to pass off Naela in her place.

UNDER THE BLOOD MOON
Sanna & Liras
An alarming number of humans are disappearing without a trace in the country of Krannar. When the crown finds a link between the missing and blood magic, they turn to the elves for assistance. Sanna, an elven princess of Fjorn, has studied the origins and applications of the banned practice and is eager to help. She and her magic companion begin their research but quickly discover their quest is more dangerous than initially anticipated. When the elves of Fjorn send a few reinforcements, Sanna finds herself relying upon the one man she’s tried to avoid for the last six years.
Liras has been patiently waiting for the right time to show Sanna that he’s the one for her. When given the opportunity to help her on her quest, he wastes no time. While he’s protecting the princess as she solves the mystery of the missing humans, he’s also weaving his way into her life. And hopefully, her heart.
