Release Date: April 1st, 2025

Eighteen-year-old Sasha Clems didn’t mean to steal a seadragon’s magic. Or err… More correctly, she did. She just didn’t mean to get caught.

Sasha is tired of being poor. Tired of foreclosure notices tacked to her family’s fridge, tired of working four jobs, tired of dreaming about college rather than attending.

When one morning she witnesses a dying seadragon expel its magic in the form of a basketball-sized jewel, she grabs it. The last time this happened, the jewel sold in the high nine-figures, but only after a kidnapping, three deaths, and an international manhunt by the Magic-Handlers’ Alliance.

No reward without a little risk.

Sasha bolts off on a cross-country race to the single person she trusts to help auction off the jewel. Chasing her is the government, the Magic-Handler’s Alliance, more dragons, and the hottest teenage magician on the face of the planet.

Even worse, the more Sasha discovers about the world of magic and the nature of the seadragon itself, the more she realizes there are things and people that just might be more important than money.

Maybe…? Because Sasha is really done with being poor.

Feather and Blade
A pampered, naïve girl with the forbidden gift of witchcraft. A jaded, bitter political pawn held captive under the city-oasis where she lives. Two lives about to collide.

Emrie Das fully understands her role in her status-seeking family. She’s to stay quietly and politely out of the way. When she gets struck by a burgeoning gift of witchcraft, she knows she must rid herself of it before anything happens that might embarrass the family or get her caught and killed.

Her father comes to her with a proposition. Master the witchcraft. Use it to keep alive the imprisoned younger son of the city-oasis’s ruler. Do so without being recognized, especially by the prisoner himself.

Deriek Valiyard has always known his brother would eventually kill him, and that’s regardless of Deriek’s mastery of sword and strategy. Deriek’s death was foreordained by his birth, a brutal burden that’s left him angry and untrusting. When a wide-eyed, terrified girl enters his dungeon-prison, he pegs her as a puppet and thus his enemy.

But they need each other. Deriek to survive the imprisonment and escape his deeply seeded bitterness. Emrie to master not just the witchcraft but the twisted political games of the city-oasis. It’s the only way one of them won’t end up dead.
