Heir of the Haloed Sun: A Romantasy Adventure

By H C Lane

2026 HOLT Medallion Finalist

Two worlds. One Destiny. And a love that will change everything.

Seventeen-year-old Temperance Maher never believed her grandmother's fairy tales about Emeriz-a world of magic, royal bloodlines, and lost heroes. But when a cherished family heirloom whisks her into that very realm, she finds herself at the heart of a prophecy she's fated to fulfill.

Hunted for powers she doesn't understand, Temperance's only chance at survival lies with King Frederick-a young, devoted royal who will stop at nothing to overthrow the tyrannical High Queen.

With war on the horizon and a heart-wrenching choice before her, Temperance must decide: fight for a world she has come to love, or return to the one she's always known. Because in Emeriz, destiny may light the way, but only she can claim the journey.

Don't miss the start of this spellbinding Romantasy Adventure about a reluctant heroine thrust into a magical world, a charming monarch with a tragic past, and an enchanting romance that could ignite an empire.
