Heart of Storm & Shadow
Coming in 2027
Hollow. Broken. Useless. Amara Dormer has heard it so many times, she’s almost come to believe it. Trapped in a Sanctuary that was supposed to nurture her, she has endured years of cruelty and mockery for her inability to wield magic. But when a brutal assault awakens something dark and devastating inside her, she tears open a portal to a nightmare dimension—unleashing monsters that have hunted humanity for centuries.
And drawing the attention of Emberlock, a fanatical religious cult determined to protect the world from magic by purging people like her.
To escape execution, Amara is conscripted by the Sentinels—an elite group of hunters who fight the very creatures she released. Survival means mastering the volatile power she barely understands while training alongside warriors who see her as both a weapon and a threat. Among them is Valmont, a lethal fighter with shadows of his own, and the first person to make her believe she might be something more than broken.
But when Emberlock strikes at the heart of her newfound family, Amara faces an impossible choice: unleash the fury of the darkness inside and risk losing herself forever or let everyone she’s come to love burn.
Because she was never broken. She was always powerful. And Emberlock should have left her the hell alone.
