"Weston will not break me, no matter how hard he tries.
Lennox Holt never expected to venture outside of her castle walls, least of all to seek out the mythical island of Dawnlin to cure her mother. Searching for the healing waters was only one of the many challenges the island forced upon the Voyagers, and learning to trust Dawnlin and those already on the island wasn’t as effortless as she expected.
Now, while in the clutches of the enemy, Lennox struggles with feeling unworthy as she desperately tries to escape, and return to her new home. She was warned of the manipulations and motivations of the Castaways, but as the future queen, she was trained for situations like these.
She must find her inner strength and fight her deep-seated fears of inadequacy, without falling for the barrage of games and manipulations. The looming presence of the Castaway’s leader makes it difficult to follow through with her plans, so she must play games of her own to get the aggravating and infuriatingly enticing leader to trust her enough to let his guard down.
But after living fully immersed on the other side, discovering more about those around her, and being told a story very different from the one she knows, she begins to question everything. Lennox now has to decide who she can trust, and most of all, who is telling the truth.
Blade of Truth is the second book in The Dawnlin Trilogy, for New Adult Fantasy Romance readers who love books with a slow burn, enemies to lovers, forced proximity, forbidden romance, found family and the one bed trope. It is meant for adult audiences with some spicy scenes."
"A mythical island. A magical cure. A choice between duty and love.
Lennox Holt has spent her life preparing for her twenty-first birthday ceremony, where she will finally be recognized as the future queen of Blackwood. Her father, the king, has ignored her, keeping her hidden away from the kingdom under the guise of ‘protection’, ever since her birth caused her mother to fall into a perpetual sleep.
Isolated and alone, she’s all but given up hope of ever having a loving parent or family until she learns of a mythical island named Dawnlin that is said to hold a cure for any ailment. When her ceremony doesn’t go as planned, she takes matters into her own hands and seeks the Guardian to take her to the island so she can heal her mother.
Along the way, she meets Dane, a handsome and mysterious stranger who is seeking the same elixir. But Lennox doesn’t know the island is full of magic and secrets, including the location of the cure.
Hunted by the dangers of the land, both magical and human, Lennox must survive while searching and avoiding the clutches of the Castaways, who are trying to steal the cure for selfish reasons. After finding everything on the island she has always dreamed of — freedom, family, and love — Lennox must decide if the duty to her kingdom and the promise to her mother outweigh her new life on Dawnlin.
Dawn of Hope is the first book in a debut New Adult Fantasy Romance trilogy, for readers who love a quest, found family, slow burn romance, secret identity, and magical systems. It is meant for adult audiences with spice levels increasing throughout the series."
