Un poder desatado.
Un deseo que todo lo consume.
Décadas después de que una rebelión arrasara la isla de Sídhe, Fia Riftborne ha aprendido tres lecciones esenciales para sobrevivir: mantener la cabeza baja, no llamar la atención y evitar a toda costa a la Guardia de Sídhe.
Pero no es tan fácil: Fia esconde un poder secreto que, si se descubriera, la pondría en peligro. Y cuando un simple recado sale mal y lo desata, Fia sabe que ya no puede seguir ocultándose.
En lugar del castigo inmediato que esperaba, el general Laryk Ashford le ofrece un ultimátum: unirse a la Guardia de Sídhe… o enfrentarse a la ejecución.
Pronto, Fia se enfrenta a otra elección imposible: rendirse al caos que lleva dentro y arriesgarse a destruir todo lo que ama, o convertirse en un arma en manos de quienes se le arrebataron todo…, incluido el seductor general Ashford, que empieza a adueñarse de cada uno de sus pensamientos…
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
He was striking in a cold-blooded kind of way, like his beauty was tinged with poison. Unassuming, alluring even.
I brought my eyes up to meet his.
“Fia Riftborne?” The words dripped from his lips like blood from a dagger.
Twenty years after a rebellion branded her an outcast, Fia Riftborne navigates a city rife with prejudice so deep, it’s often deadly. But she harbors a secret, one that would paint an even larger target on her back. A hidden power within her is growing, threatening to destroy everything she’s built for herself.
Enter the elusive Sidhe General, Laryk Ashford, who is building a unit of powerful wielders within the Guard to face a growing threat. Wraiths of darkness devour the Western border, leaving a trail of death and destruction in their wake.
When Fia’s power erupts, and two daughters of Nobility are seemingly dead, the elusive General Ashford offers her a chilling choice: join the Sidhe Guard or face execution.
Because Fia might be the only hope for the Isle’s survival.
Torn between surrendering to the chaos or becoming a weapon for those who took everything from her, Fia must confront her growing feelings for the General and face a dark truth that could shatter everything she’s ever known.
Riftborne was written for readers that love a well-developed enemies-to-lovers arc and strong female friendships. The magic system is heavily inspired by X-men— if it took place in the city of Silverymoon from the Forgotten Realms. Laryk Ashford is the Charles Xavior to Fia’s Dark Phoenix. It would appeal to fans of A Fate Inked in Blood by Danielle L. Jensen and Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros.
