In the shadow of Eryndral’s restless volcanoes, where phoenixes rise from ash and secrets burn deep, Shadowflame Ascent: Rise of the Ashen Bond by Lauren Ashwood ignites a tale of passion, betrayal, and redemption. As the ember core pulses with ominous power, Kael Draven, a scarred outcast haunted by his warlord father’s legacy, clashes with Lirien Veyra, a fierce phoenix rider whose rogue bond teeters on the edge of chaos.
United by a cryptic note threatening midnight destruction, these reluctant allies must navigate a conspiracy that could awaken the volcano and shatter their world. As embers fly and trust ignites into love, they uncover a prophecy binding their fates—a rebirth that could save or doom Ashenhold Citadel. With venomous traps, a shadowy traitor, and the weight of their pasts, Kael and Lirien’s journey is a fiery dance of sacrifice and hope.
Perfect for fans of Fourth Wing and A Court of Thorns and Roses, this standalone epic blends heart-pounding action with sizzling romance, leaving readers breathless for the ascent to come.
