The Forgotten Flame
Book 1
of
A kingdom on the edge of war. A girl marked by fire. A love that could destroy them both.
Kaelara Veylin was never meant to wield magic. In a land where power is forbidden, she should have lived and died as a blacksmith’s daughter. But when a single spark ignites a rebellion, she is thrust into a world of dark intrigue, royal deception, and ancient magic that refuses to stay buried.
Her abilities make her a target—hunted by the Iron Guard, sought after by those who would use her flame as a weapon. With war brewing and her power growing dangerously unstable, Kaelara finds herself torn between paths:
A rebellion that sees her as their savior.
A kingdom that would see her burned.
And a forbidden connection with Dain Arvath—a Prince bound by duty, but drawn to her fire.
As her flames burn brighter and the gods whisper of her destiny, Kaelara must decide: Will she become a force of salvation… or the spark that turns Aeryndor to ash?

A slower, atmospheric pace
Extensive, poetic descriptions
A deeply emotional, romantic subplot (without explicit scenes)
A story that unfolds like an epic, rather than a quick read
