Healing Fire

By Emma Perle

A long-buried secret could destroy everything and love may prove to be the most dangerous, and potent, magic of all.

Viola is a dryad born of ancient oaks, gifted with the power to draw healing from the trees and fiercely devoted to the hidden world of her forest and the guardian centaurs who protect it. But when vreebuiters - ruthless tree pirates - murder her mother and fell her sacred home, Viola's world is torn apart. In the wreckage, she uncovers a devastating truth: she is half-human, born of a distant land called Spirea, and once had a twin brother who vanished years ago. Determined to uncover what became of him, she refuses to let the past remain buried. And with her home in ruins and her people under threat, Viola journeys to the Belinos River City to beg its protector, Thorsten, the fire-wielding Duke of Belinos, for help.

Yet the kingdom's ancient law stands in her way, and desperate to save her people, Viola takes a risk that draws her deeper into Thorsten's world - and closer to his guarded heart. As threats loom beyond the city walls, attraction flares into something far more perilous. Viola must decide who she truly is and what she is willing to sacrifice for love.

Healing Fire is an addictively enchanting tale of hidden identity and forbidden love, perfect for romantasy readers seeking something a little different.
