When Fate is Cruel Signing Exclusive Cover Paperback (Event Preorder)

This Special Edition paperback will come with LJ’s updated cover, sprayed edges, character art cards and more! This is only available for in person events. This novella will give the backstory of Erik Bloodsinger, and our beloved, bloodthirsty sea fae of the Ever Seas. BUT in a second novella inside, those who have been swept into my Broken Souls and Bones universe will be happy to learn, you are also getting the backstory of Roark Ashwood, our silent MMC in BSAB! Two stories of two of my favorite morally grey men! Part 1: The Ever Seas Erik Bloodsinger never wanted to live in a cruel kingdom that was desperate to shape their scarred, young king into someone ruthless. But fate is cruel sometimes. Perhaps vengeance for his fallen father is what drives the young Ever King, but there are secrets Bloodsinger and his crew keep in the shadows to survive the cruel twists of fate in the Ever Seas. Enjoy the backstory of a boy king forced to bear the burden of a crown too soon. This story reveals events from the death of King Thorvald up to the days after the earth and sea fae war. See more of Bloodsinger, Gavyn, Tidecaller, Heartwalker, Sewell, and even some secret allies in the mists of the sea and the lands where songbirds sing. Part 2: Broken Souls and Bones Roark Ashwood rose in power behind the walls of the royal fortress of Stonegate, even as an orphan from the enemy clan. He’s formidable, ruthless, and the only remnant of his lost voice is the scar across his neck. But what vicious twists of fate brought the Sentry of Stonegate to enemy gates? What was his life before he fell into silence and bloodlust? Enjoy the backstory of Roark Ashwood in the months leading up to the melder raids that left him bleeding and dying at the gates of Stonegate, only to survive by the mercy of a mischievous prince. Fall into the Realms of Stìgandr and the dark secrets of Roark Ashwood.
