From Ashes to Fire: The Ember Witch's Revenge
They thought she was dead, reduced to nothing but ashes. But Mara Solen has returned, with a god of fire burning inside her and a burning desire for revenge against the seven families who cast her out. The setting is Emberhold, a city ruled by the elite families of the Cinder Court, where fire-magic and wealth reign supreme while the rest of the city starves under a sky of smoke.
Mara is no longer the powerless girl they once knew. Bound to the Lord of Ash, a powerful entity determined to cleanse the world with fire, Mara's every move is controlled by the god inside her. As she plots to bring down House Vael, the family responsible for her exile and the destruction of her life, mysterious "accidents" begin to befall the elite ruling class. Whispers spread of the return of the Ember Witch, and fear grips the city.
But as Mara's power grows, so does the god's hold on her soul. Will she be able to carry out her revenge and bring down the corrupt Covenant, or will she lose herself completely to the destructive desires of the Lord of Ash? As riots, forbidden rituals, and court trials shake the city, Mara must make a choice between her vengeance, her city, and the people she still loves.
