quick trilogy blurb

Working among the Underground labyrinth of Mirror, Zora Vyner is desperate to find the brother she lost as a child. When a man in a mask offers her a chance to compete against the fiercest female warriors in the kingdom to win the Heir of Fate's hand in marriage, a man who sees and knows all truths, she is thrust into a heart-pounding, lust-driven, chaotic tug-o-war for the crown.

The FATES OF MIRROR trilogy is a completed, dark fantasy romance trilogy intended for adults (18+). Please be advised of the following content warnings, and note some of these may be considered spoilers.

Graphic violence, profanity, tragic backstories, scars, fight-to-the-death scenarios, human trafficking, explicit sex, war, eyeball trauma, beheading, past history/mention of sexual assault (not on-page), murder, torture

Spice:

2.5 out of 5—keep in mind spice is very subjective. The spice does ramp up over time as the characters' relationship forms. While a fantasy romance, this is not a spice-focused fantasy, and I don't consider it 'smut'. There's lots of tension, back-and-forth lust, and on-page explicit sex starting in book 2.
