Frigid Magic
Ard is hunkering down in the mountains for the winter as the war cools with the snow.
That means it’s time to practice his magic and stay out of trouble. Well… Ard might not be entirely proficient at the last one. At the very least, he’s staying away from the city and his penchant for annoying other people.
Except that doesn’t work out so well when he’s forced to attend a ball held by the Brighthavens, though they’ll certainly regret forcing Ard’s attendance.
No matter how it goes down, you’re sure that Ard is going to have as much fun with it as he can.
Bruce Sentar
Bruce Sentar's writing journey is one built on a foundation of wanderlust and a passion for storytelling that defies boundaries. Growing up in the agricultural heart of the American Midwest, Bruce's childhood was defined by constant change—his family moved every year, from one small town to the next, finally culminating in a life-changing experience in Shanghai. It’s these varied experiences, from the wide-open spaces of rural America to the bustling streets of a foreign city, that have shaped his unique perspective on storytelling.
Ard's Oath
In Ard's Oath, the fate of one young man is intricately entwined with not only powerful magic but a growing circle of loyal, alluring women who challenge and redefine his destiny. What begins as an unexpected oath soon evolves into something far more complex—Ard’s journey is not just about discovering his place in a mystical world, but also navigating the passion, loyalty, and tension of a world where love and magic are inextricably linked.
Ard, a seemingly ordinary man thrust into extraordinary circumstances, is bound by an ancient oath to protect a secret power that many would kill for. But in a world full of dangerous enemies and elusive allies, it’s not just his life on the line—it’s his heart. As he attracts powerful women, each with her own strength, secrets, and desires, Ard’s relationships with them become just as critical as his quest to survive.
The world-building in Ard's Oath is rich, painting a vivid tapestry where magic flows as freely as the complexities of love and trust. Ard’s bond with each woman evolves in surprising and tantalizing ways, creating a thrilling blend of romantic tension, personal growth, and heated moments that will keep readers hooked.
While magic is a constant presence, it’s the delicate dance of relationships—each fraught with its own challenges—that defines the stakes. Will Ard be able to balance the weight of his newfound power and the emotions of those around him, or will he succumb to the tensions pulling him in every direction?
Full of passion, intrigue, and heart-pounding moments, Ard’s Oath is perfect for readers who crave an immersive fantasy world filled with powerful magic and tantalizing romance, where every oath taken could change everything.
