Echoes of a Phoenix (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798996573714)

Amber spent her life belonging to everyone but herself.

Orphaned, renamed, and raised beneath the cruelty of the Bevil family, she learned to survive by becoming whatever others needed her to be: obedient, pleasing, invisible. But when she is sold into the glittering, enchanted court of King Weylan, survival becomes something far more precarious.

The king is charming. He offers protection, romance, and a destiny that feels almost too beautiful to question. Yet the longer Amber remains at his side, the clearer his devotion reveals a darker truth.

He does not want to free her.

He wants to own her.

As forbidden fire awakens beneath her skin and ancient echoes from old legends urge her to rise, Amber is pulled into a world of magic, spells, mythical creatures, and buried folklore. To survive the power imbalance of a king who claims to love her, she must uncover the truth of her identity, her curse, and the power that was never meant to stay locked away.

But awakening comes at a cost.

In this dark women's fantasy of survival, resilience, found family, and self-transformation, Amber must reclaim her body, her magic, and her heart before the king turns them all into something gilded, beautiful, and trapped.

Because some women are not rescued. Some burn their way free.

Perfect for readers who love the Shadows of the Tenebris Court series and The Plated Prisoner series.
