Echoes of Fire

On Volcaryth, love isn’t whispered. It’s carved in blood and scales.

Orla never asked to become an alien city’s most wanted human. As an environmental scientist, her only crime is curiosity—until she stumbles into a sacred Drakarn ritual and unleashes chaos. Now, bound to Rath, a warrior with smoldering scales and a claim that shakes her to the core, she’s trapped in a deadly game.

His people see her as a threat.
He claims her as his own.

Rath’s obsession is absolute. From the moment he tasted her scent—sun-baked sandstone and stormfire—she became his heart’s flame. But claiming her is a risk that could shatter his honor, his clan, and his life. The Forge Temple demands her death, and to save her, Rath must stake everything in the brutal trials of the River’s Run Festival, where serpents of lava and schemes of power coil together.

The price of survival is trust. The cost of freedom is surrender. And in the burning heart of Scalvaris, love will demand a sacrifice that could consume them both.
