power in plain sight
In a world shaped by the Three Spheres of Power – Cosmic, Destiny, and Magic – balance once held everything together. But when a prophecy begins to stir and a mortal is chosen in place of one of the sons of Magic, that balance starts to unravel.
The Ashes of Eyrondale is a slow-burn romantasy series where memory holds power, longing runs deeper than truth, and identity is never simple. At its heart is Katherine, the lost daughter of Time, whose return to Eyrondale sets ancient forces in motion. Her story unfolds through each trial and memory, weaving together a series where everything is connected.
Told through multiple points of view, each book draws readers deeper into a realm of forgotten love, fractured loyalty, and choices that reshape the fabric of fate. This is not a story of instant answers or clean resolutions – it is one of puzzle pieces, emotional tension, and truths that are only just beginning to surface.
Step into a world where immortals, supernaturals, and mortals confront the past, navigate the present, and brace for what lies ahead, as the fate of the balance of power is on the line.

book one
the awakening of a princess
When Katherine wakes in a castle, her name is the first thing she hears. It is not something she remembers.
No past. No people. No reason why eight mortals have been brought to Eyrondale Castle, or why they look at her as though they have already lost her once.
A prophecy long bound to her power is stirring. The Five Trials of Fate are about to begin, and when a mortal is chosen in place of one of the sons of Magic, destiny shifts.
The first trial brings no threat of failure, only the return of truths she is not ready to face. Piece by piece, her story unfolds as she relives her history with each of the champions bound to a past she cannot remember.
Prepare for The Memory Kiss.
