OF EMBERS & IVY (THE BROKEN ISLES, #1)
BY LAUREN SANATRA
THE FIRST BOOK IN THE BROKEN ISLES SERIES
In a world ruled by elemental isles and divine law, peace is sacred—and costly.
Hidden from the world and branded a royal secret, Princess Eliane of Ember has lived in the shadows, her weak magic a quiet shame. But when a coronation, a forbidden arrow, and an ancient law collide, she is thrust into the light in the worst possible way—having killed the Ivy Prince, she now owes the sacred debt: a life for a life.
Dragged to the cold and cunning Ivy Isle, Eliane becomes a prisoner, a pawn in a cruel game of power and ancient magic. Her execution is delayed, her fate twisted, and her identity exposed.
In her darkest hour, she finds an unlikely ally in Reed, a silver-tongued thief who sees the fire she’s been forced to hide.
As her world fractures, Eliane must reclaim the voice that was stolen from her and spark a power no one—least of all herself—believed she possessed.
Of Embers & Ivy is a spellbinding tale of survival, sacrifice, and the courage to be seen.
