HEIR: The Cursed Monarchy, Book One 💀 scary.co

In the empire of Saol Eile, magic is the only currency and those who have the most cast long shadows across the land. Amidst lavish parties, sumptuous banquets, and sprawling castles, despicable tyrants have risen, calling themselves kings by right; emperors, by the laws of old magic, and monarchs, by the wealth they've procured. When it's rumored that an army of flesh-eating monsters has risen from the shadows, tyrant-kings are forced to submit to a far more dangerous power - the sorcerer standing at the head of it all: The Cursed One. Orphaned and penniless, eighteen-year-old Cecily Trask's magic has always been reluctant to emerge. But after the traumatic death of her mother, she began exhibiting uncontrollable surges of magic. One spilled cup of cider in front of the wrong person was all it took to send Cecily’s humble life into a tailspin, forcing her to embark on a journey to understand and embrace what she was destined to be: a wielder of magic. A magic so strong that it’s capable of corrupting her impressionable soul. With the empire at the brink of war, she vows to do whatever it takes to keep the people safe -- even if it means breaking all the rules, reaching into the depths of her soul to unravel the bindings around her true power, and allying with the dangerous Daire Niadh to do so.By an unexpected twist of fate, she finds herself facing a dangerous dilemma on a crowded ballroom floor in court. Her dance partner is an elf; the Crown Prince of Alcove, Rilien Lios-Alf, to be exact. And he endeavors to take the empire in ransom. With every touch, he weaves a spell around her, and Cecily flits closer and closer to disaster, drawn inexorably toward the flame. The elf eludes that Cecily’s life is a lie. She’s not who she thinks she is. Even worse, the man she loved was not who she thought he was either. In a landscape thick with mistrust, desire, and incipient hope, Cecily and Daire cross paths in an unfamiliar world forever changed by violent forces neither of them understand. They should hate each other. They should want each other dead. But their grief both draws them together and breaks them down, until all they have left is their shared goal - to defeat The Cursed One, even though for Cecily, the journey means almost certain death.
