Blood, Salt, and Betrayal

Shackles and Stars Trilogy

By: Emery Luna

Narrated by: Adara Bryan

The kings of the world have spoken—she must be captured.

She does not know what she is. Not a queen. Not a mage. Not human. She only knows that blue fire rages in her veins, answering to her will, defying every law of magic. They call her a witch, a weapon too dangerous to roam free. They demand her obedience. They seek to chain her, to break her, to use her.

But she will not kneel.

She barely knows Salvatore, the reckless man who appeared out of nowhere. Forced into an uneasy alliance, something pulls them together.

While the world hunts her, Salvatore plunges into the abyss. Shanghaied and forced to dive for unknown and unseen treasure, something dark turns against him. And as he gasps for air, his brother, Christopher vanishes—kidnapped and enslaved in the another country, where poisoned green fog coils like a living thing. Escape is impossible. Survival is a gamble. Until Christopher dares the unthinkable—facing the toxic mist that could kill him in seconds.

As kingdoms collide and war ignites, their fates will entwine with the one woman the world fears most. The hunted. The unchained. The reckoning.

Because power like hers does not come without a cost—and those who seek to claim it may find themselves consumed.
