Publisher's Synopsis
A New Fate is Foretold
Ramaron Marlow never expected to be chosen early for the Academy-a place where young sorcerers shape magic and destiny alike. But his Void-born talent isn't the only reason he's there. Ramaron courts trouble, especially if it comes with a masculine smile. Except he finds exactly that in Nerilis Dunsman. A talented, arrogant, and divine chaos that Ramaron can't resist.As their rivalry burns into something deeper, their soulmate bond is tested with the arrival of Joiya Lerenan-a talented young woman whose ethereal energy captures both men's romantic love. Bound by prophecy and chosen by a forgotten goddess, Ramaron, Nerilis, and Joiya are pulled into a metaphysical legacy stretching beyond time. Their names-Marlow, Dunsman, Lerenan-are etched into the bones of the universe, destined to awaken sorcery long buried. Echoes from an Ancient Past When Joiya fulfills a heartbreaking prophecy, Ramaron and Nerilis are left to pick up the pieces-and her duty. They may be freed from service to an ancient entity, but threats to the universe, to the very afterlife, remain. Ramaron seeks understanding through faith; Nerilis pushes for power. Soon, the greatest crime is committed-and two soulmates may have to become enemies to save the Void. What ensues is the bitterly hopeful tale of life, love, and the very nature of the mortal soul. All in the name of subverting prophecy. CROSS//Prophet is a prequel in the CROSS// metaphysical fantasy universe. It features a heavy MMF subplot as well as on-page references to miscarriage.
