Kiera of Eldwick lives a simple life in her quiet village—tending gardens, avoiding trouble, and dreaming of a future far from prophecy or power. But when shadow rifts tear open across the realms, unleashing vicious dark wielders and nightmarish creatures, her world shatters in an instant. Marked by an ancient prophecy she never asked for, Kiera is ripped from everything she knows. Rescued by a monstrous beast in the heart of the chaos, she finds herself soul-bound to the brooding, dangerously magnetic Shadow Lord of the Umbral Expanse—a being as feared as he is irresistible. Bestowed with lost relics from forgotten dragon gods, Kiera awakens to a wild surge of elemental magic that burns through her blood and soul. But every gift demands a price. In the shadows, fae weave their intricate webs, pulling strings from afar—and they’ve been waiting for someone exactly like her. Withered by Shadows is the spellbinding first book in the Scale of Eternity trilogy. This epic romantic fantasy weaves high-stakes prophecy, slow-burn enemies-to-lovers tension, and a steamy soul-bond that will leave you breathless—all set in a lush, crumbling world on the brink of beautiful ruin. Perfect for readers who devour fierce, reluctant heroines who claim their power, morally gray love interests with hidden depths, and immersive realms. If you love magic that comes at a cost, forbidden bonds that ignite, and a heroine’s rise from ordinary to extraordinary—dive into the shadows today.
