Ashes of the Fallen

In the third book of an addictive, New York Times bestselling romantasy series, the war against House Atarah is over, but Elowen and Cayden’s trials have only begun—and the cost for those who remain may be too steep a price.

The once mighty House Veles is crumbling, plunging Ravaryn into chaos. For Elowen and Cayden Veles, defeating their enemies has led to devastating consequences. Elowen is now lost to an unfathomable darkness from which she may never return, and Cayden searches for her with no regard for his own safety or the fallout he leaves behind. He will put his wife before his duty—and kingdoms will bleed for it.

With the fate of their king and queen unknown, Ryder Neredras, Saskia Neredras, and Finnan Eira must carry on through their grief as the throne slips from their grasp, holding the fragile peace together and keeping the truth of Cayden’s whereabouts from the various factions who want to seize power for themselves. As alliances fray and new enemies rise, they will risk everything to save Ravaryn, regardless of the sacrifice.

As the gods awaken and deadly tension mounts across the world, House Veles may rise again—or be lost for all eternity.
