The Ithenmyr Chronicles

Aileana is the king's pet. She has lived her entire life in a tower, waiting for the day she will be forced to marry his son. When that day arrives, she has a plan. Armed with her daggers and desire for freedom, she runs from the king and his deadly power. Xander has spent his entire life on the run. He doesn't need anyone or anything, certainly not a mate. But when his path crosses with a feisty elf, nothing will ever be the same again. He has secrets to keep. She wants to leave Ithenmyr behind and not look back. Fate has other plans for them both.

Aileana and Xander have accepted the truth about their mating bond. Now, they're working together to free Aileana from the blood magic binding her. Only then can they continue Xander's century-long search for the map.

After the disastrous events in Vlarone, Aileana and Xander are on the run from High King Edgar. The Crimson King will stop at nothing to get his hands on the bonded mates. In the sanctuary, Aileana must learn to harness her growing powers before she loses control. Back at Nonna's cottage, Daegal and Ryllae face problems of their own. They must travel to the Indigo Coast to visit the merfolk if they have any hope of lifting the curse placed on the Death Elf Princess. The journey isn't easy, and numerous roadblocks challenge their growing trust.

High King Edgar's death threw Ithenmyr into turmoil. Seizing the throne, the Southern Queen's thirst for power is unprecedented. She won't stop until all Four Kingdoms are hers to rule. The broken balance has unleashed chaos and destruction in every corner of Ithenmyr. Blood and death are around every corner. Aileana and her companions are the only ones who can stop the Southern Queen and restore the balance. The earth continues to cry out, and the darkness grows stronger every day.

The end has come. The balance is broken, the Gilded Amulet is lost, and Aileana has been taken. Never before has the outlook in the Four Kingdoms been so grim. Vowing to retrieve his bonded mate at whatever cost, Xander will not rest until she is found. Life and death rest in balance and fate is playing a dangerous game with their lives. Luckily, Xander is not alone. With the help of old and new friends, he journeys through Ithenmyr to find his mate before the Dragon Queen can destroy everything he holds dear.
