Reign of the Witch Queen
A CROWN OF LIGHT AND SHADOW
Two worlds. One prophecy. A love that could doom them both.
Harper
Elves don’t exist.
They definitely don’t crash through portals in the middle of the DMV, looking like a gorgeous God of Thunder, and announce that I’m the chosen one destined to save their world.
Aaran is definitely real, dangerous, magic-wielding, impossible to ignore, and terrifyingly persuasive. After he saves my mother from a brutal, early death, how am I supposed to say no to helping him?
I can barely keep my own life together—my driver’s license is about to expire, for gods’ sake. How am I meant to fight a witch queen, survive her monsters, and save an entire world I didn’t even know existed?
Aaran
My mission was simple: find the human woman and bring her to Domhan to fulfill the prophecy.
Caring for her was never part of the bargain.
I shouldn’t have healed her mother of the cancer. The effort nearly killed me. But my world is dying, and I couldn’t stand the thought of Harper losing the last person she loves, even if it costs me everything.
The oracle claims her magic is powerful and untapped. If they’re wrong, we won’t survive long enough to reach the witch queen. If they’re right, maybe Harper will save us all, if dark magic and constant danger don’t tear us apart first.
Every step we take binds her closer to me. Desire may be the one magic neither of us can control.
A CROWN OF WIND AND WATER
A reluctant heroine, a hardened soldier, and a love powerful enough to change fate.
Liam
I’m a soldier, not a diplomat, and certainly not a kidnapper.
But the oracle was clear: my brothers and I must retrieve the human women destined to destroy the witch queen, or watch our world fall to darkness.
I expected a warrior.
Instead, I find Wren. She’s small, sharp-eyed, and furious when I try to take her. She floors me with one well-placed kick and walks away like she hasn’t just defied an elven soldier sent by fate itself.
I should be irritated.
Instead, I’m intrigued.
She may look fragile, but beneath her quiet strength is a power I don’t fully understand—and a will of iron that makes me want her at my side far more than is wise.
Wren
My great-grandmother used to tell stories about the fair folk with bright eyes, pointed ears, and beauty dangerous enough to steal a girl’s heart. I thought they were just stories.
Until one of them tries to abduct me from the dentist’s office.
Liam is impossible to ignore—lethal, arrogant, and devastatingly beautiful—but I’m nobody’s idea of a hero. I’m barely five-foot-two, I design jewelry for a living, and I want no part in an elven war.
Then he and my mother reveal the truth about the magic running through my blood, and I may be the key to saving an entire world.
Against my better judgment, I agree to travel to Domhan. But before I can reach the portal, a dragon attacks—ripping Liam and me away from Mom and hurling us one month back in time.
Now the fate of the elven world rests on my shoulders, but I’m more concerned about finding my mother in this war-torn world.
No dragon.
No witch.
Not even destiny is going to stop me.
A CROWN OF FIRE AND ICE
One reckless leap. One broken portal. A love forged in chaos and fire.
Layla
I’ve never belonged anywhere.
So when I hit rock bottom, fresh off losing a nationally televised “superhero” competition, a devastatingly handsome man with pointed ears asks me to jump into a swirling vortex and help save his world…
I jump.
Was it reckless? Absolutely.
Was it smart? Not even a little.
Within minutes of landing, we’re attacked by shadow demons. Two things are clear: my beautiful elf is not as competent with portals as advertised, and dying might be the best outcome, because whatever these creatures are, becoming one of them would be far worse.
Raith
Convincing a human to fight in Domhan should have been the hardest part.
Instead, Layla leaps into the portal without hesitation, and that’s when everything goes wrong.
I’ve spent my life failing to live up to my family’s legacy. I’m not the perfect son, like Aaran. Not the honored soldier, like Liam. I’m the third son, the disappointment who has too much power and not enough discipline.
My magic is strong, but my focus slips at the worst possible moment. The portal shifts and drops us onto the wrong world—a dying hell, crawling with the witch queen’s minions.
I’ve made another catastrophic mistake, and this time an extraordinary human is paying the price. I’m going to make this right, even if it means walking through fire and ice to get her home.
A CROWN OF STARS AND SEA
Nainsi
Duty has always come before desire.
I crossed into the human world chasing fragments of a prophecy that could finally end the reign of the witch queen who cursed the elven realm and stole our future. I didn’t come alone. I came with a small party, including my mentor, the woman who leads our people without a crown, and whose faith in me I refuse to betray.
Falling for a human fisherman was never part of the plan. Wanting him is a weakness I can’t afford. When the prophecy is found, I’ll have to choose between saving my world and breaking my own heart.
Bert
The sea has shaped my life as surely as the tides shape the coast of Labrador. Fishing is all I’ve ever known and all I ever wanted, until Nainsi walked into my world and changed everything.
From the moment I saw her, I knew I’d give up my boat, the ocean, even my life to keep her safe. She’s hiding something, something big…I can see it in her eyes. But if I can show her my whole heart, maybe she’ll trust me with the truth before whatever she’s running from calls her home for good.
A CROWN OF BLOOD AND DUTY
Rìan
The mission is simple: rescue the elven children stolen by the witch queen before they vanish forever. Freed once by the human woman from the prophecy, then retaken, they’ll be held at the black tower. Failure isn’t an option.
But when a fairy steps out of the shadows to warn us that we’ve come to the wrong place, plans must be abandoned. Fairies never leave their island. They don’t meddle in elven wars. And they definitely don’t look at me the way Niamh does. She is dangerous in ways I didn’t anticipate, distracting, defiant, and far too tempting. I’m here to complete a mission, not lose my heart to a fairy who doesn’t belong in my world.
Niamh
I watched Rìan Redmond long before he knew I existed. As my father studied the elven realm through his scrying mirrors, the captain of the guard was always there—steady, loyal, untouchable.
Seeing him in the flesh makes my pulse race, but this isn’t a fairy tale. I left the safety of my
island to help free the children trapped by the witch queen, and I won’t turn back now. If fate
insists on tangling my heart with a stubborn elven soldier along the way…who am I to argue?
