Where Fate Takes Us

Janine came to Stormsgale for one reason only, To disappear. After surviving the massacre of her coven ten years ago, she’s spent her life running from the ashes of her past, hiding her magic, changing her name, and trying desperately to become someone ordinary. Stormsgale, a storm-ridden witch town tucked far from the empire’s heart, was supposed to be her fresh start. A quiet life baking bread, earning coin, and forgetting the nightmares that still followed her into sleep. Then the Duke of Valdorn walks into the bakery asking for cupcakes. Cassius Valmount is dangerous in more ways than one. A royal descended from dragons, brother to the former emperor, and a man tied far too closely to the night Janine lost everything. Now trapped once again in the orbit of the very bloodline her mother cursed before dying, Janine finds herself caught between secrets, power, and a fate she thought she escaped long ago. Because some pasts refuse to stay buried. And fate has a cruel habit of finding people who run from it. ____ This is a slow burn book. There's tension, there's romance, there's possible blood and some spicy scenes... This is my first time writing after a long time, I almost gave up on writing so let me be honest the first three chapters are a bit rusty but please bear with me till chapter 18, I promise you'll love this book. Love from your sleep deprived author, Lady Nyxia.
