DELUXE LIMITED EDITON with emerald gilded edges, interior character art, and designed inside covers!

He was striking in a cold-blooded kind of way, like his beauty was tinged with poison. Unassuming, alluring even.

I brought my eyes up to meet his.

"Fia Riftborne?" The words dripped from his lips like blood from a dagger.

20 years after a rebellion branded her an outcast, Fia Riftborne navigates a city rife with prejudice so deep, it's often deadly. But she harbors a secret, one that would paint an even larger target on her back. A hidden power within her is growing, threatening to destroy everything she's built for herself.

Enter the elusive Sidhe General, Laryk Ashford, who is building a unit of powerful wielders within the Guard to face a growing threat. Wraiths of darkness devour the Western border, leaving a trail of death and destruction in their wake.

When Fia's power erupts, and two daughters of Nobility are seemingly dead, General Ashford offers her a chilling choice: join the Sidhe Guard or face execution.

Because Fia might be the only hope for the Isle's survival.

Torn between surrendering to the chaos or becoming a weapon for those who took everything from her, Fia must confront her growing feelings for the General and face a dark truth that could shatter everything she's ever known.

Riftborne was written for readers that love a well-developed enemies-to-lovers arc and strong female friendships. The magic system is heavily inspired by X-men-- if it took place in the city of Silverymoon from the Forgotten Realms. Laryk Ashford is the Charles Xavior to Fia's Dark Phoenix.

Review Quotes

Praise for The Esprithean Trilogy

"Fans of ACOTAR will gobble up Riftborne. It's got enemies-to-lovers, detailed world building, morally gray love interests, slow burn spice that's worth the torture, an underdog female lead like Yarros' Violet and a rad power-system loosely inspired by the X-Men." --Buzzfeed

"A hidden gem that's fit for ACOTAR fans...[the] chemistry is tense and full of enemies-to-reluctant-allies energy. Riftborne is a slow burn that's worth every page." --Brit & Co

"The Esprithean Trilogy has everything I love in Romantasy: immersive world building, complex characters, and a forbidden, enemies to lovers romance! I couldn't help but root for Fia and her quest to uncover the truth. And the romance? Slow, and steady, until it absolutely BURNS." --Demi Winters, bestselling author of The Road of Bones

"Broadbent, Maas, and Yarros fans, you've been warned. Riftborne is your next addictive series. A slow burn truly at a truly wrought out delicious pace that will leave you squirming for what's next. And worldbuilding that rivals Broadbent's in its design and intrigue. Excellent, just excellent. I cannot wait to find out what happens next." --Emily Bond, HuffPost Books and Buzzfeed
