The Witches of Mara Series
Book One: The Vaelment
Ophelia Eldryn was never meant to rule.
She was never meant to survive.
Summoned from the witch-isles of Mara to the gilded fae kingdom of Valdyris, Ophelia is bound by a covenant older than kingdoms to a betrothal not of her choosing—and watched by powers older than gods. The royal court calls it tradition.
The witches call it a warning.
When the Vaelment trials begin, the court expects her to break beneath them. Instead, something ancient stirs at Ophelia’s touch—something the Mothers themselves have marked.
As court politics sharpen into quiet cruelty and her fate entwines with a prince of shadows, Ophelia must uncover what she truly is before the throne decides for her… and the darkness claims her.
Because some witches wield power.
And some witches are power.
