Legacy Book 1

Tessa has grown up as a Fae who has tried to be overlooked. She never wanted to be one of the selected. But a chance encounter with the heir of Arius, Theon's source. Now she is forced into a life she's never wanted. While Theon doesn't understand why she isn't grateful to him. Will he be able to use her as he had always hoped or will he break her?

This is the first book in the Legacy series. Tessa is a character who has always been made to feel that she's not good enough. Now being placed in the lime light, it makes her truly look at herself. With this chaos that Theon bring there are times I wanted to kick him in the nuts or love him. The world is complex and filled with a mythos that is diverse. I loved reading this book and can't wait to read the next book, Storm of Secrets.

“Out of all their creations, the gods favored their children the most. But with that favor came the fear that their Legacy would one day become too powerful . . .

A World the Gods Forgot

Devram is a realm hidden amongst the stars. The gods gave their Legacy the best of all the worlds, and then they left—having sworn to never return and to never interfere.

A Historical Event

Forced into a life of servitude, the Fae provide for the Legacy in more ways than one. Every five years, eligible Fae are gathered for the Selection and assigned to serve in one of the six Kingdoms. To be chosen as the personal Source for a Kingdom Heir is the greatest honor, and for the first time in millennia, all six Kingdoms have heirs choosing a Source. But their selections could tip the power balance a little too far.

A Chosen That Was Never Meant to Be

Tessalyn Asura was as forgotten as the realm. But when she finds herself the personal Source to the Heir of Endings, she winds up serving in the darkest Kingdom of them all. The secrets within the Arius Kingdom are meant to be learned and kept, but this was never the life she wanted. Fighting not only the fate thrust upon her, but the temptation to lose herself to desire, Tessa will do anything to escape her new destiny. Until she begins to realize that maybe their world isn’t as forgotten as they thought—and that maybe she’s the reason why.”
