By debut author Mercedes M. Taylor, comes the first book in a heart provoking new fantasy trilogy. Fans of Plated Prisoner, A Court of Thorns and Roses, and Red Queen will fall in love with the world of Triora.
The Mages forced us to live and die in the desert, adding salt to the wound by sending the Wraith to cull us every fifty years.
I’m nothing but an orphaned human, destined to die alone with nothing but failure surrounding me.
That is, until he came, stealing me away under the guise of the Wraith.
Nothing would ever be the same.
Would I ever find my way back to the desert and the only people that I loved?
Or was I destined to die in the magical lands of Triora?
A thousand years ago, humans left the magical lands of Triora to escape the powerful magic of the Mages. Not long after, the new human Colony became plagued with cullings from the Wraith, a scourge of evil on the land. No one dared venture past the Colony’s walls except one lone girl, looking for a brighter future.
Danica left the safety of the Colony only to find an object that would call a Mage to her doorstep. Unwillingly, she is taken to the magical lands of Triora, only to find her world shattered as she tries desperately to determine what is real and what is a mirage.
The magical world of Triora lures her in with promises of love and belonging, but her home in the Colony dwells painfully on her mind. One can never be too careful in a land where magic reigns supreme and mirages become nothing more than deceit and trickery.
A compelling adult fantasy romance that will leave you begging for book two. A story of romance, self-discovery, hardship, and a dive into self-acceptance will keep you hooked from start to finish.
Note: This book is not intended for anyone under 18 years of age, containing mature language, sex, violence, abuse, and the grappling of mental health.
