“But heed this warning, and heed it well—your mate’s life is linked with the very male she is destined to kill.”

With an iron collar wrapped around her throat, Sage is cut off from her powers and forced to live in Clearwell Castle, home to her enemy—the ruthless king whose bloodthirsty rule has led to the deaths of thousands of Cursed. Sage knows that if she is going to stop the persecution of the children of the Old Gods, she has to end the king’s reign. Permanently.

But when she meets the devastatingly handsome heir to the Edenvale throne, Prince Aurelius, she finds another reason to stay at the castle. Who is this mysterious male that bears no resemblance to the king and what is it about him that makes him feel so . . . familiar?

As Sage begins to unlock the memories from her past, she discovers that Von hid more from her than just his identity—he hid what he took from her. Everything that she thought she knew about the seductive, dark, apple-loving immortal is brought into question, and there is only one way to find out the truth—she needs to remember it all.

Like a deadly brushfire on a windy day, the past is coming. Will it forge Sage into someone stronger, or will it consume her?

. . . that is, if the lovers of her past don’t devour her first.

Jaclyn Kot

Jaclyn Kot writes the kind of fantasy romance that lingers long after the last page, weaving together shadow-drenched worlds, characters who blur the line between hero and villain, and love stories that burn as fiercely as they ache. Her Between Life and Death series has captured the hearts of dark fantasy romance readers around the world, earning millions of reads on Kindle Unlimited and recognition from Amazon’s “Best of BookTok.”

Her path to publishing was anything but rushed. The seed of her debut story was planted more than a decade ago, but it wasn’t until 2021 that she rewrote it from the ground up, determined to bring her characters the life they deserved. When Between Life and Death arrived in 2023, it was quickly embraced for its morally grey male lead, its strong and complex heroine, and its blend of spice, mythology, and high-stakes twists. Sequels followed swiftly, expanding her Edenvale world with deeper lore, heartbreak, and the kind of intensity that keeps readers awake at night.

Kot grew up in Saskatchewan, where endless prairie skies and the quiet rhythm of farm life shaped her imagination. Today she still calls the Canadian prairies home, living on a farm with her husband, two cats, a dog, and a flock of chickens that often find their way into her Instagram feed. Away from her desk, she is as much a reader as a writer, inspired by fantasy greats like Sarah J. Maas and Jennifer L. Armentrout, yet intent on carving her own space with stories that are unapologetically dark, romantic, and empowering.

At its heart, her work is about transformation, the courage to face shadows, the vulnerability of love, and the strength that comes from surviving both. Readers have shared that her books helped them through difficult moments in their own lives, a reminder of the quiet power stories can hold. For Jaclyn Kot, that is the true measure of success, not just bestseller banners but the connection her worlds create, one reader at a time.

Between Life and Death Series

In a realm where gods walk in shadows and bargains are etched in blood and ink, love is both a curse and a salvation. The Between Life and Death series pulls readers into Edenvale, a world steeped in ancient magic, ruthless power, and dangerous devotion. Here, every vow carries weight, every kiss hides a cost, and destiny is rarely as kind as it seems.

At the heart of the story is a heroine who refuses to break, even when trapped in the snare of immortal forces that would claim her soul. Her journey collides with a figure as alluring as he is treacherous, a morally grey presence whose darkness tempts as much as it terrifies. Together they navigate a labyrinth of forbidden desire, godly intrigue, and battles that test the limits of loyalty and love.

Readers are drawn not only to the high-stakes romance but also to the lush world-building, the pulse of danger that runs beneath every page, and the way each twist unravels expectations. From whispered prophecies to enemies-to-lovers tension, the series balances passion with peril, offering an immersive escape for fans of dark fantasy romance.

Already embraced by a wide community of romantasy readers and celebrated on Kindle Unlimited, the series has become a rising phenomenon, proving that the most unforgettable stories are the ones where light and shadow blur—and where love refuses to bow to death.
