Welcome to the Nightfall Series, an epic fantasy with magic, secrets, lies and love.

If you enjoyed the Throne of Glass series and the A Court of Thorns and Roses series, you’ll love this dark twist on epic fantasy: Nightfall in the Forest of Broken Dreams (A Tale of Magic and Lies).

A broken curse, a war based on lies.

Who will survive the chaos?

In the wake of shattered illusions and broken promises, darkness descends upon the Kingdom of Aneirin once more. Welcome back to the Nightfall Series, where magic intertwines with deception, and love hangs precariously in the balance.

Taking advantage of a kingdom in turmoil, Caspian’s thirst for power knows no bounds. With each calculated move, he inches closer to his ultimate goal, heedless of the havoc he leaves in his wake.

Aurelia’s victory over the curse has opened the floodgates to a torrent of chaos and uncertainty, and the Elves prepare to descend on those under the protection of her lover, Rhydian, the human prince.

As he grapples with the damning revelations of his family’s dark legacy, Rhydian finds himself torn between duty and desire. As the chaos unfolds with lives hanging in the balance, he must embark on a perilous journey into the unknown to uncover the key to the salvation of those he holds dear.

Meanwhile, Fox’s tortured past edges closer on dark wings. He must come face to face with the choices of his own vengeful heart, clinging to the hope that his lover has the strength to forgive them both for the sins of their past.

In a world where nothing is as it seems and truth is a scarce commodity, who will emerge victorious, and who will be lost to the ravages of war and the chaos that comes after?

Nightfall in the Forest of Broken Dreams continues the spellbinding saga as secrets unravel, loyalties are tested, and destinies collide in a whirlwind of passion and betrayal. Immerse yourself in the darkness and intrigue of Aneirin once more, where the boundaries between light and shadow blur, and only the strongest hearts will survive.

Aurelia settled back against Fox, her body sinking into exhaustion.

＂Do I have a shadow?＂ she asked, her voice heavy with weariness.

＂Of course you do.＂ Fox’s arms tightened around her, his words a chilly breeze in her hair. ＂Me.＂

Book One features M/F lovers.

Book Two introduces M/M lovers to the adventure.
