    Lost Crows and Fallen Stars (Formerly Lady of the Colum)

    They’re enemies, so why did he choose her as his wife?

    After losing my memories during an attack, I learned I was married to Milo Arris—the young ruler of two planets. A man who is as cruel as he is handsome, and for some reason, he chose me to be his wife. He chose me to be the Columess–the girl he seems to hate more than the invaders who wiped my memories.

    But I have bigger problems than Milo’s cold words. Servants in the palace are hiding strange burns on their bodies. A maid is murdered at the ball. Not to mention there’s the looming mystery of why my memories were wiped to begin with.

    Danger lurks in the shadows, and with every strange occurrence, I fear someone aboard the Imnicus may be putting both our lives in jeopardy.

    Lost Crows & Fallen Stars is a dark romantasy and book one in a trilogy. It features morally gray men, trippy magic, on-page spice, a complex plot, and tortured characters. The world contains dark elements, physical & psychological violence, and situations that readers may find disturbing.

    Atticus

    He was my solution so I became his nightmare.

    I was only twelve years old when the immortals killed my family. When they broke into our estate and murdered my dear sister right in front of me. Since that horrible day, I vowed to destroy the immortals, no matter how impossible it seemed or how many people I hurt.

    Eight years later, I am a feared assassin and a wicked lover, but I am no closer to avenging my family’s souls. The murderers are still out there, taunting me with their every waking breath. But the secret to their immortality is not within reach. At least not in my lifetime.

    So there's only one solution now, isn't there? I will sleep in the Spring of Perpetuity and preserve my body until my mentor finds a way to kill immortals. And one day, four-hundred and eighty years later, he does.

    It's London in the year 1890, and I have my eye on only one dashing man, the key to all my life’s dreams–Dominic Ashworth.

    Does he really think he can keep his forbidden magic from me? That I wouldn't find him hiding in a prestigious magic-wielding university? Nevermind that. I will enroll undercover, I will befriend him, and when he least expects it, I will take everything from him.

    What’s in your head, Dominic? What makes you tick? I look forward to meeting you. Sinking my claws into your fears, vulnerabilities, and desires.

    Breaking you before you realize what I’ve done.
