Songs of Ash and Dawn: Book Two

In this second book within the deep, multilayered world of Songs of Ash and Dawn, something dark continues to plague Cora, Aidan, and the rest of the population. Shadow creatures are casting dark magic no one understands, leaving ash where people once stood, and growing bolder with every passing day.

But who’s driving the dark? And how will they overcome?

As a demigod shifter awakening to the power within her and a witch learning to control a volatile power source, Cora and Aidan are pulled deeper into a hidden world of supernatural threats, mythical creatures, and ancient forces who will stop at nothing to claim or destroy what they carry.

Both must learn to harness their evolving abilities, confront the truths buried in their pasts, and decide what they’re willing to become to survive what’s coming.

New alliances are forged. Old truths are shattered. And the deeper they go, the clearer it becomes—this is only the beginning.
