The Artisan Trilogy #2
A Forsaken Prophecy
Not yet published
Expected 14 Jul 26In a world of high-class magic and gangster grit, a star-crossed couple must decide where their loyalties lie in the sizzling romantasy follow-up to BookTok star Stacey McEwan’s New York Times bestseller A Forbidden Alchemy.
In Belavere Trench, the Artisans and the Craftsmen are at war. Patrick, the last Alchemist, and Nina, the world’s only known earth Charmer, have been captured by the Artisans, putting Patrick’s rebel union in a precarious position.
Though he hasn’t forgiven Nina her betrayals, Patrick has other things to worry about. He is finally reunited with his father, a prisoner of the Artisans, and the group lands a narrow escape only with the help of Nina’s first love, Theo. Decoding an ancient prophecy, they set off in search of an infinite supply of idium that will determine the course of the war, should it prove more than a myth. Fleeing across Craftsman towns on the brink, they will encounter old friends—and enemies—in search of answers.

November 5, 2025The cover art is somehow EVEN BETTER than the first book?! Can’t wait for this one to come out!
Review of advance copy received from Netgalley
As someone who just finished reading book one! Yes Nina bring those walls tumbling down. It’s hard to read a gripping book and realize there will be a long wait before the next. Is it bad that I love the messy trio of Theo, Pat and Nina?? But ultimately of course I want to see Pat and Nina beat all the odds, through all the layers and secrets they keep and come out a strong united front.
