Lady of Ashes – by Melissa K. Raehrich book 3 in the Lady of Darkness series

by Melissa K. Roehrich
One wrong move, and the scales will tip. Only ashes will remain.

Scarlett Semiria gave everything—her love, her power, her freedom—to protect the ones she couldn’t afford to lose. But the price she paid has fractured more than she imagined. Fire still burns in her blood, but shadows now stalk her steps, demanding a new kind of sacrifice.

Crown Prince Callan thought he was done with flames and heartbreak, but the darkness in his own court won’t be ignored. Caught in a web of deception and power plays, he must navigate a path where one misstep could doom them all.

And as Queen Talwyn welcomes her cousin home, she finds herself at odds with the firebrand assassin who threatens everything she’s built. But when a new enemy rises, old grudges must be set aside—or burned in the coming storm.

“She will not be the same as when she left.”
