Shadows & Starlight: The Eldritch Academy (Book One)

Welcome to Thornwick Academy—a hidden, ivy-covered world divided by magic, blood purity, and ancient prejudice.

Lira Ashworth thought she was ordinary until silver, lightning-like runes awakened on her skin on her seventeenth birthday, revealing her as a rare Fae-human hybrid. Thrust into a prestigious and brutal school where her very existence is outlawed, she must navigate deadly social castes, a rigid hierarchy, and dark magic just to survive.

Paired in her most dangerous classes with Kade Blackthorn—the cold, disciplined heir to a ruthless pureblooded dynasty—Lira expects an enemy. Instead, they find their magic undeniably bound together. As they uncover a forbidden grimoire and a prophecy meant to shatter the school's walls, they also unearth family secrets dark enough to get them killed. When Lira’s identity is exposed before the entire academy, Kade must make the ultimate choice: protect his powerful family name or risk everything to claim the girl who woke his soul.

Filled with high-stakes tension, dark academia vibes, and an intoxicating enemies-to-lovers romance, Shadows & Starlight is an epic journey of rebellion, identity, and finding strength in the dark.
