Narrado por: Lois Ridge

Duty before love; legacy before life.

Six months have passed, and Tallora’s nightmares are haunted by memories of Solvira and the woman she loves - Empress Dauriel Solviraes, seated on a throne a thousand miles away. But war waits on the horizon, and when rumors of her kingdom’s coalition with Moratham surface, Tallora fears her small kingdom will be destroyed between the two warring empires. With the help of new friends - a merfolk prince and a mysterious sea witch - Tallora must return to Solvira in order to stop the rising tides of war.

From the author of Fallen Gods comes a story of duty and betrayal - and a love that transcends the bounds of land and sea.

I loved the entire series! You won't be disappoint

I enjoyed this series of 3 novels enough to actually post a review. Worth it!

Beautiful - You will laugh, cry, & feel...

Heart of Silver Flame is a tale of two women who should never have met and a love that should never have been. Heart of Silver Flame is a romance, fantasy, and emotional roller coaster of a book (and series) starting as unexpectantly as it concludes. Powerful characters, deep emotional subtext, an examination of culture, sexism, power dynamics, and how we genuinely define good and evil await.

The story starts a few months after the conclusion of Fate of the Stars. Tallora and Dauriel have settled into their respective lives, and all as returned to what it was, or so it seems. As the story progresses, we find that conflict and danger are building, as the powers of the world rise to destroy whatever peace had been feigned.

Can Dauriel hold together both her empire and herself? How can the silver flame keep from burning all she cares about when her nature is fire? Will Tallora find romance in a familiar friend, can the influence of Onias be of help, and can the world truly control a creature as powerful as a leviathan? Dark forces work in complex plots, which will keep the reader on the edge of their seat from the first sentence until the ending. Even as the turmoil ensues and the world shakes, a selfless mermaid fights to save it, herself, her people, and her burning fire… hopefully, that flame won't burn her too.
Issues of PTSD, mental health, and how we truly defined what is moral are dealt with as delicately and intricately as a sculptor cuts stone into a beautiful marvel. The author keeps each plot pushed just to the maximum, pausing only to add more fuel to the flame of emotions. The plot is complex, and the extensive use of foreshadowing makes the text feel alive. The characters are deep with rich emotions and vibrant personalities, making the reader really care what happens to them.

By Heart of Silver Flame, the Sea and Stars trilogy had become my favorite book series of all time, unseating another beloved series I had thought might forever carry the title of "best literature," at least in my opinion. If I were to recommend one trilogy to someone, this would be it.
