SOULS OF SHADOW & STEEL A thousand years apart. The same soul. The same obsession. The same inevitable surrender. She walked into his throne room expecting a monster. She found something far more dangerous — a king who looked at her once and couldn't look away.1247 AD. Seraphina Vale arrives at the court of Vaelthorn as a political hostage, collateral for her father's debts. King Caelum Drave has conquered six kingdoms and felt nothing for any of them—until the moment a conquered lord's daughter refuses to lower her eyes. Present day, New York City. Sera Vale is a history doctoral student who has spent four years obsessed with a medieval king who vanished from the historical record without explanation. She doesn't believe in fate. She doesn't believe in reincarnation. She has no explanation for why a ruthless billionaire named Cole Drave feels like a memory she's never had. Two timelines. Two lives. One consuming love that refuses to stay buried.

As Seraphina navigates a court built on fear and a chief advisor who wants her dead, and Sera uncovers secrets about the man who's been watching her for years before they ever met, both women face the same impossible truth: the men who own their hearts are not safe. They were never meant to be. Souls of Shadow & Steel is a dual-timeline dark romance about obsession that outlasts death, power that demands everything, and a love so consuming it bends the rules of time itself. This audiobook contains dark themes, morally complex characters, and explicit content intended for mature audiences.
