Genre: new adult, epic fantasy, trilogy
Royal gryphons almost killed her brother. Now the queen demands that she train to fight with them.

When a royal gryphon nearly kills her brother, two things become clear to nineteen-year-old Farren Blackburn: she is not the best person to care for her brother, and she despises the vicious beast who changed him forever. But an unwanted letter commands her father to fulfill a decade-long Servitude to the crown. In a desperate attempt to protect her family, Farren takes her father’s place and is brought to Alidonia—a place full of infuriating Enchantments, a selfish queen, and two princes who are like oil and water.

Worst is her new duty: to train with the queen’s deadly, heartless gryphons. The gryphon guard has six weeks to prepare before they are launched onto the streets—putting innocent lives at risk of the gryphons’ ruthlessness. Their potent elemental magic and intricate runebonds do nothing to reassure Farren, but she has no choice in the matter—even when faced with the very beast who attacked her brother.

Of Gryphons and Runes is the first book of a New Adult epic fantasy trilogy filled with suspense, romance, and deep-spun mysteries. Perfect for readers who love animal-human bonds, mythical creatures, elemental and telepathic magic, lovers-to-enemies romance, and a strong female protagonist.

Would you choose love? Or a throne?

Eighteen-year-old Yakua Roca worries more about her family's meager finances than the emperor who flattens kingdoms on his march toward the border. But when stone giants attack her village, Yakua's ambitious plan to marry a priest turns against her and she finds herself a peace offering to a man with a reputation for cruelty.

Yakua must navigate a dangerous betrothal, accept her shameful past, and stave off the burn of forbidden desire.

Or leave everyone she loves in the careless hands of the monster she has to marry.

For fans of epic fantasies and books like "The Red Queen" and "Hunger Games,” this tale will immerse you in a gorgeous and unique world with steep mountain peaks, forbidden romance, mysterious magic, and unforgettable characters.

The Blood Chain: Indulgence Series 3
by Erin Kellison
July 10, 2023
Genre: Romantic Fantasy, Action & Adventure Fantasy, Epic Fantasy
Erin Kellison's Indulgence World is on fire with heart-stopping romance, perilous adventure, and court intrigue. And Terah and Adom are right in the middle of it all...

Daughter of the Messenger god, Terah Crane is tasked with delivering an urgent warning to the god of Passion and Fury. But instead, she chooses to accompany his enigmatic son Adomanei on a mission that will decide if they will be players or pawns in the game of the world.

They alone know that one of the gods is a traitor, and discovering who it is requires maneuvering among their scheming scions. Together, they must discern ally from enemy while defending against attacks from the shadows.

Battle-weary Adom trusts only one person, and he's keeping her close. It would help if Terah would acknowledge their magnetic attraction and agree to a formal courtship. But Terah is wary of love and uncertain of a future with the arrogant prince, especially when their wills collide.

Escalating violence forces them to make a desperate choice, but they've fought side by side before and prevailed. This time, however, Terah and Adom find that mixing passion and politics is dangerous, but defying the gods is deadly.

AS A PRINCESS, MAGIC AND DUTY ARE IN HER BLOOD. AT LEAST THEY’RE SUPPOSED TO BE.

An overlooked princess journeys to the edges of the realm to reclaim her stolen magic but discovers her entire world is at risk of destruction.

—————

At twenty, Lafia Ketonga has reached the age of eligibility. She only has to pass her Demonstration of Magic and she can officially begin courting and start her path to her dream of being a light leader. However, her magic is inconsistent and she’s pretty sure it’s broken. She’s also certain that the gray smoke that has grown over the mountains above her kingdom of Narut, has something to do with it.

Lafia finds herself on an adventure that takes her to the magical land where her former mentor lives, and beyond, all with the hope she’ll find the answer to her failed magic.

Despite the impossible choice she faces between her dreams and saving the world and people she loves, she always remembers what all the royals of Faduwata understand.

Faduwata is, always.
