I didn’t mean to crash into a magical kingdom, threaten royalty, or get branded by an ancient realm called Shadowstorm like it knew my blood. But hey, when your bestie vanishes into a fantasy world and your granddaddy’s journals hold the secrets to open a portal to a fantasy world called Vareth, you pack your whiskey, seasoning, edge control… and jump.
I’m Cinda Reynolds, knife-wielding bartender, Tae Kwon black belt, part-time ghost hunter, and full-time chaos magnet. One minute I was chasing spirits with my ride-or-die bestie Amira, the next she’s missing and my MIT-genius cousin, Jace and I find a way to stumble into Vareth, thanks to our granddaddy, Big Pops. This place has three kingdoms and too many secrets.Now I’m in Vareth, where my best friend’s a queen, my family’s legacy is laced with old magic, and a six-foot-seven walking thirst trap with violet eyes, keeps calling me, "Kitten." His name's Rhyos, a beautiful, flawless K-drama face, predator smile, turns into a damn panther, and apparently, I’m his mate. Yeah. Hard pass. (Okay… soft pass with benefits. Maybe.) That mate bond thing is hitting hard, though. Rhyos is the High Lord of Shadowstorm, smooth, smug, and impossible to ignore. He's always shirtless. I say his overgrown housecat ass needs a shirt and a leash.
I suddenly have my own magic that I didn’t ask for and visions I can’t shake. Turns out my Big Pops wasn’t just an old man with fantasy stories, he was a Mirror Keeper from Shadowstorm, and now it’s me and Jace's legacy. I'm the Seer and he's the Mirror Keeper. Oh, and surprise, I might’ve accidentally unleashed a reality-devouring force called the Nameless Deep. My bad. The Shadowstorm High Council and Rhyos's little bro, Morian, don't like me. They say I’m too loud. Too human. Too wild to rule beside Rhyos as the High Lady of Shadowstorm. But I’m not here to rule. I’m here to raise hell, stop that Deep thing, and be happy with my bestie. Rhyos may be the Shadow, but baby, I am the storm that Shadowstorm needs.
The Dark Call of Shadowstorm is a spicy, high-stakes, laugh-out-loud fantasy romance with claws, chaos, legacy magic, and heat that smolders. Perfect for fans of K-drama fantasy romance, fantasy with flavor, and heroines who don’t ask for crowns... they snatch ‘em.
