The Ealdspell Cycle

She is forced to dream while awake. He must face his nightmare—her.

Princess Aroreh Rosen is stuck in a beautiful dream.

Except . . . she hasn’t slept since she was a small child. And to do so now may end her life.

For years, Aroreh has lived under a spell to see sunny illusions of beauty and contentment. A programmed glamour to blind her from seeing how her mother’s cruelty and magic are amplified only when Aroreh is awake.

But when Félip MacKinley, a shadow walker and surviving heir of faerie, helps a rebel sect of fae kidnap her, Aroreh’s true magic is set free—an ability to weave new realities while dreaming. A powerful magic that could stop her mother’s vowed revenge to annihilate Félip’s throne and destroy the Kingdom of Ealdspell.

Quickly, the world around Aroreh unspools into fraying threads of danger and deception. A position that forces her to trust only herself. Not the faeries who are using her as a pawn in their war against her mother. Not the handsome prince who also fears her, the young woman connected to his every nightmare.

And she knows what she must do to save her people—sleep.

Even if it kills her.

OF DREAMS AND SHADOWS is a young adult fae fantasy spin on the romantic tale of Sleeping Beauty, blending faerie magic and pagan ritual with an Industrial Revolution meets medieval elven faerie tale inspired setting, sprinkled with high-tech dystopian touches.
