Blood of the Covenants

C. S. Lewis's Chronicles of Narnia meets YA romantasy in this dual point-of-view, slow-burn romance.​Sarah Lind thinks her biggest problems are picking a college and helping her large family. Until she falls into the perilous Six Realms, inhabited by human-dragon shapeshifters who fight for their survival against the monsters of Earth's myths. If Sarah is to find her way home, she will have to work with their Heir, who is kind and handsome enough to put her in a different kind of peril.​Koriben Sunfilled thinks his biggest problems are finding a cure for his beloved father and redeeming the magical Covenants that are the basis for his people's existence (in that order). Until he finds Sarah, an entrancing Earthren who is just the person he needs to help him avert disaster. Yet even greater shadows creep across the horizon. If the Six Realms and Earth are to endure, both Sarah and Ben will have to embrace their destiny-before the Devourer consumes their worlds.​Readers who love Brandon Sanderson's hope-filled, immersive fantasy (but, let's be honest, crave a bit more romance) will "devour" Dragon's Blood, Book 1 of the Blood of the Covenants Series.

Two Heirs, one quest. . . . Sarah Lind is far from her Pennsylvanian home, having fallen into the perilous yet magical Six Realms and fallen in with their equally deadly and alluring prince, the dragon-shifter Koriben. Yet Earth's secret guardian, the Tree of Ice, has given Sarah a way back: if she finds and unlocks all six moongates hidden across the Six Realms, the Tree will reveal the seventh moongate to Earth. As Sarah races against all odds to find her way home, she risks something even greater than her life: her heart. Koriben Sunfilled, Heir of Flame, knows his duty: to protect Sarah, the declared Heir of Ice, on their joined quest to redeem the Covenants his people depend on in their existential war against the dark Devourer. Yet he wrestles with his growing feelings for her and the destiny that could divide them. But if Sarah rejects her birthright, his people could pay the price-starting with his dying father. The only way for Sarah and Koriben to survive and succeed is for them to embrace the connection growing between them. Yet they are in a race against time, because in ten days . . . . . . the Devourer comes for them all.

Two hearts, one tear. . . . Sarah Lind has now discovered over half of the moongates scattered across the Six Realms that she will need to return to Earth. Just as miraculously to her, the dragon-shifter Heir of Flame has come to care for her, with the magical bond forged between them becoming stronger by the day. Yet Sarah's choice of whether to embrace her destiny is still far from simple, especially with the rising movement calling Sarah the long-promised Moondaughter, crushing her with the weight of their hopes, and the Tree's injunction that the future Queen of Ice must marry the future King of Flame. Sarah loves Ben . . . but does she have the courage to become his Queen? Koriben Sunfilled can hardly believe that Sarah wants him, and yet the truth now seems undeniable. With their goal just within reach, and the promised cure for his dying father that much closer, for a moment he soars higher than ever before. Yet when someone he once trusted betrays him yet again, this time endangering not just him but his beloved cousin as well, his spirit is shattered, and he isn't sure how to keep going, let alone bear the fear of losing Sarah too. But with another now vying for Sarah's heart . . . he just might lose her in another way. Ben loves Sarah . . . but does he have the strength to allow her to love him in return? With only four days left for them to finish their quest before the Devourer's invasion, neither of them have much time to find the answers. Yet if they don't . . . . . . the darkness could tear them apart.

Two crowns, one reign. . . . Sarah Lind is now the Queen of Ice. With the help she gave the dragon-shifter dramá as the Moondaughter of prophecy, the man she loves and the Six Realms he protects have survived the Devourer's second invasion. Yet all is still far from well. In the battle's devastating aftermath, she and her family are now in exile in the Seventh Realm, with Earth cut off from them, perhaps forever . . . and the newly invested King of the Six Realms has shut them out. Koriben Sunfilled is now the King of Flame. Broken beyond measure by his father's ultimate sacrifice to save him, he will not risk the one he loves most, Sarah, doing the same. Yet his self-imposed hell is slowly killing him, even as troubles and dangers mount, proving that he and his people need Sarah and her own, now more than ever.At both their Trees' commands, Ben and Sarah will have to mourn, forgive, and heal while learning to be the Monarchs their peoples need-and soon. For as history has taught them all too well, it is one thing to repel a Devourer's invasion . . . . . . and it is quite another to survive the after.

Two lives, one hope... All Sarah Lind's dreams now seem within her reach: not only is she welcomed back to the Six Realms as the Queen of Ice, she is now days from her marriage to their dragon-shifter King of Flame, and, united by their powerful bond, Sarah and Ben have thwarted the Devourer's attempts to ruin the Realms' recovery from its invasion. Yet there is still one more dream for her to discover—one which the Tree of Ice declares is the key to saving the Realms from the Devourer once and for all. For though a King is dangerous, a Queen is more powerful. Because she, like a Tree Herself. . . can become a mother. All Koriben Sunfilled's hopes now rest on the promise the Tree of Flame gave him that if he did as She commanded, Sarah—the one person he cannot live without—would survive the darkness coming for her. Yet his Tree's command tests him to his very core, because it echoes his parents' own sacrifice to give him life, the cycle he had once vowed would end with him. But after losing so much, Ben will now do anything to save Sarah. Anything. Even... become a father. Even as Sarah and Ben resolve to have a child only for the right reasons, their time is once again running out, for the Devourer will not tolerate the threat the Monarchs of Ice and Flame pose. Sensing in them the culmination of millennia of Tree preparations for its final defeat, the Devourer has determined they must die—and it knows just how to lure the Queen of Ice into the open. The Devourer will invade once again, this time coming for the fading Tree of Ice, whom Sarah is sworn to protect. This time... ...it is coming for Earth.

Two children, one birthright... Nineteen years after the Tree of Ice died to trap the dark Devourer in a time freeze on Earth, Earth has begun to thaw, and now Sarah and Ben's grown children must find their consorts to help them defeat the Devourer once and for all. Korrien Moontouched is the Heir of Light. As if the pressures of helping his mother and Queen lead their growing clan weren't enough, he and his twin sister have grown up knowing they are the keys to the Devourer's final defeat—to concluding the Battle for Earth, which has been frozen in time since before he was born. When Earth's time thaw begins, Rien is thrown into the Seven Realms' efforts to secretly protect humanity from their common enemy. The thaw also offers Rien his only chance to find his consort—because Rien has to marry a pure human of Ice. But the only Earthren to have escaped the time freeze is nothing like what the logical, perfectionist prince had so carefully planned for himself. As feisty and unpredictable as she is pretty and petite, Sierra Knight encapsulates everything Rien finds aggravating... and irresistible. Serona Sunfilled is the Heir of Flame. Even so, the bubbling young woman has only three goals in life: One, keep her twin brother sane. Two, make her papa and King proud. And three, find the mate the Tree of Flame promised her and live happily ever after. Yet things aren't quite that simple. When the Tree of Flame sends Rona to an unknown world, the dragon who awaits her is nothing like she had expected—and belongs to the rarest of Powers, one that can only be born from the embers of calamity. Suddenly, nothing is as perfect as the sunny princess believed it would be. Though Drevior is as tantalizingly handsome as he is scarred, he returns with her carrying secrets and sorrows—and he brings a dire warning of an entirely new threat to the Seven Realms... which he will risk everything, even his life, to deliver. For there are other dark powers besides the Devourer, and as the Devourer weakens and its defeat approaches, one of them turns its thirst on the Seven Realms. If the Realms and Earth are to survive, both Rien and Rona will have unite all four Powers of Life—Flame, Ice, Light, and Ember... ... in one.
