(If you're already subscribed but haven't gotten the email with the download link, check your spam and/or promotions folder.)

Mage of Storm and Sea is set in the same world as the Wildings books, in the Islands where Silas's mage ancestors came from, a couple of hundred years before the Wildings books. (Here's a secret - Esavas, the hero of Mage of Storm and Sea, is one of Silas's ancestors!) Dreams of Magic, a novella/short novel, takes place 12-13 years before the main series begins.

Here's the scoop:

They called him a war hero. The savior of the common people of the Islands. The greatest weather mage the Islands ever knew. But once, he was a lonely, misfit youth with some impossible dreams.

Esavas Daruvias wants two things in life - to become a weather mage and to marry the girl of his dreams. But, bookish, awkward, and misfit, his magical power stunted since childhood, he knows that his hopes are completely out of reach and life as a scholar at the remote, secluded Tower is his only refuge from a society where he doesn't belong.

Then his father offers him the impossible, an arranged marriage to the beautiful Pirazina, the girl he's always loved - who barely even knows he exists. Determined to win her heart and admiration, Esavas risks everything - his freedom, his future, even his power itself - to become the mage and man he longs to be and make his dreams a reality.

Note: Dreams of Magic is the prequel to Mage of Storm and Sea, an epic fantasy series with a prominent romantic storyline in the later books. There will eventually be an HEA for the characters, but they have to work for it first! In the meantime, I hope you'll enjoy getting to know Esavas, the hero of the series.

Please note: Contains strong language and mature subject matter, including drug and alcohol use and sexual references.

Watch for the cover reveal of Winds of Magic, Book 1 of Mage of Storm and Sea, coming soon!
