SecRets and StaRdust

Celestial Whispers duology Book 1

The stars are not what they seem. So look away; they’ll whisper you your fate.

Iyana’s only ambition in life is to become a healer like her grandmother, but that all changes when her village is attacked by a neighboring kingdom. She desperately calls upon the heavens for salvation and the stars respond, yet not as she had ever imagined. She is sent Altair, a hypnotically handsome star in human form. Iyana is more shocked to discover that she is an Aztia, a magic bearer born once in every generation, and that a captured enemy soldier named Emmeric is unwittingly caught up in her destiny.

Although he is fated to work with Iyana, Emmeric is reluctant to assist a woman from the village he was recently trying to destroy, no matter how spellbinding her beauty is. He trusts his rival Altair even less, as the star and Iyana are caught in each other’s orbit.

When the emperor’s own son, Zane, joins their quest to stop his father’s tyrannical invasion, the companions begin unveiling long-buried secrets that echo through time. Secrets that could change the course of human history and reveal the hidden origin of the Aztia themselves.

A captured foe. A fallen star. A forsaken prince.

Betrayal is inevitable. But who will perpetrate it?

“This was a STRONG romantasy story, and it's only the first book! The story is so captivating right off the bat all the way through to the very end. I couldn't put it down. The found family, the LOVE TRIANGLE, the whole world! I'm obsessed with this series already, and I cannot wait for more.”

“Ok I absolutely loved this! Also, STAR DADDY? Gosh I was not expecting that spice 🥵🔥 new book boyfriend alert!

The story is so unique, I loved the worldbuilding, the magic and the multi-POV! If you enjoyed An Ember in the Ashes with topics such as rebellion, empire oppression, soldiers who feel conflicted about which side they are on, you will also enjoy this. Ideal for fans of unlikely allies, forced proximity romance and found family.”

“The plot, the pacing, the characters - it was all so amazing. Iyana is such a badass from start to finish. This book is set with 3 different POV following Iyana, Emmeric, and Prince Zane. The banter between the character's was amazing and had me chuckling the entire book. The magic system and the lore in the book is super interesting. I loved the idea that the stars are not what they entirely seem (iykyk).

Uses grabby hands gimme book 2 please!
