Only 3 away now, so excited! Unfortunately, I won't be able to work on Embers of Hope for a while to focus on my entry novel for the Action Fantasy Tourney, The Scarlet Thread!
Here's the link and synopsis if you're interested!
Synopsis
The Scarlet Thread tells the story of Auriella, a demoness who once fought to save humanity from an otherworldly invasion, only to be brutally betrayed and killed by those she protected.
Reborn 20 years in the past, Auriella seizes a second chance—not just to stop the coming war, but to erase the hatred between humans and demons before it destroys them all. As she navigates this treacherous new world, the ghosts of her past and a burning desire for revenge threaten to unravel her mission.
Torn between vengeance and redemption, Auriella must decide: will she forge a future of peace, or let the darkness consume her completely?
The Scarlet Thread weaves a tale of betrayal, second chances, and the battle for one's soul.

Reborn as the adored daughter of a duke, Leticia seems to have it all: love, friendship, and wealth—until a mysterious girl shatters her world, stealing everything she holds dear. Consumed by jealousy and betrayal, Leticia’s desperate actions lead to her tragic death.
"Thank God," she whispers with her last breath, "at least now I can sleep peacefully."
But when Leticia wakes again, she’s horrified to find herself in the past, with no desire to live or to be loved.
"No... This can't be real," she gasps, her heart racing. "I don’t want to live through this again. I can’t."
Haunted by the future she knows is coming, Leticia feels only despair. She wants neither revenge nor to reclaim her old life; all she craves is an escape from her fate—a way to die peacefully without reliving the pain that once destroyed her.
"Just let me go," she mutters, her eyes hollow. "I don’t want to fight anymore."
Can Leticia break free from her tragic cycle, or is she doomed to repeat her suffering?
When Phawin Sirisuk (Win), a down-to-earth school teacher, discovers that his life is about to change forever, he can hardly believe it. His mother, along with her childhood best friend, has arranged a marriage for him to none other than Thanathorn Wachirayan (Than), Thailand’s dazzling superstar and model.
“What do you mean I’m getting married?” Win stares at his mother, his mind racing with confusion and disbelief.
But as the two worlds collide—glamour and grit, fame and simplicity—Win finds himself drawn to the man behind the headlines. Can a love story blossom from a marriage of convenience, or will the pressures of the spotlight dim their chance at happiness?
Join Win and Than as they navigate the unexpected twists of love and destiny in A Star for my Heart.
Chapter 21: Assault on the Eastern Wall
As the moon bathed the eastern wall of Crafter Base in pale light, two weary guards traded idle chatter. Below, unseen in the shadows, goblins worked feverishly to prepare their assault.

Amid the chaos, a green recruit faced his first deadly trial, a desperate signal spell becoming the base’s only hope. Far from the battlefield, schemes of treachery and espionage unravelled in the imperial court under the watchful gaze of Serpentonia’s enigmatic emperor. War and intrigue converged, leaving no soul untouched.
