Abigail
Peace was never an option.
I should have known better than to trust the king of Bellos. When I suspect he's plotting against Crithos, I insist on accompanying Queen Rebekah on a diplomatic mission -- one last chance to prevent war. But Bellos is already lost to corruption, and my worst fears come true. Deceived, betrayed, and taken captive, I find myself at the mercy of an enemy who will stop at nothing to see Crithos fall.
Hope comes from the most unexpected place -- Malakai. The ghost of my former enemy appears in my time of crisis, offering guidance, his presence both a mystery and a lifeline. But is he enough?
With war on the horizon and my kingdom in peril, I must find a way to break free. Time is running out, and failure isn't an option.
Malakai
I never thought I'd return to her.
For a year and a half, I existed in the shadows, a specter bound to a realm few can see. My past is a burden I carry, but when Abigail falls into enemy hands, I can't stand by and do nothing. I may be limited, unable to touch or fight as I once did, but I will help her.
As I guide her through the chaos, something inside me shifts. Each choice I make pulls me toward a destiny I never dared to hope for -- one I never thought possible.
But if I help Abigail escape, if I aid in saving Crithos from destruction, what will become of me? Am I meant to be more than just a shadow of my former self?
Can the Avant Champion form a partnership with Malakai to escape the clutches of a power-hungry king and rescue her country from the clutches of his destruction?

"Riveting story that sees the Avant champion accompany the queen, and efforts to save the kingdom that echo in unexpected ways." -- Booksprout Reviewer
"Exhilarating ride! When Abigail loses her abilities at the hands of the evil king of Bellos who is intent on subjugating all of Crithos under his thumb, I had no idea how she was going to save the day. But once again, the author has cast her magic and after death-defying turns at every corner, this book delivers a most satisfying ending." -- Author H.M. Gooden
"I recommend this story and the whole series to everyone who loves reading about fantasy in their stories." -- Bookbub Reviewer (Five Stars)
