A Crown of Echoes and Bone
Amnesia & Shadow Relic Hunt: A YA Epic Fantasy Romance About Forbidden Magic, Memory Control, and a Fight to Reunite Fated Lovers

In the hidden city of Nocturne, Jessica Peake is a pariah. Her magic, Dolora, is not the disciplined strength of her people; it’s a wildfire fueled by the searing trauma of her family’s murder. To the Doloran resistance, she is a liability, a walking disaster with a power that reeks of the very enemy they hide from—the Luxian Directorate. But when a fanatical crusade led by the ruthless Victor Metcalfe threatens to extinguish their kind forever, Jessica’s "tainted" gift becomes their only hope. An ancient family journal reveals she is the key to finding the Heart of Sol, a mythical artifact that could turn the tide of their secret war.
Thrust into a desperate quest alongside the weary Commander Brandon Murray and his hostile lieutenant, Jessica must unravel a map of cryptic memories that leads them deep into enemy territory. Pursued by the Directorate’s most brilliant and ruthless general—a man whose motives are as fractured as the landscape—they uncover an ancient lie at the heart of their world: the war between pain and joy is not one of good versus evil, but a tragic schism between siblings.
Their journey culminates in a cataclysmic confrontation at the legendary Zenith Spire, where victory comes at an unthinkable price. To save their world from tyranny, they must break it. Now, in a shattered reality where magic itself has become a poison—stealing memories with every spark of joy and consuming life with every flicker of pain—a new, more impossible quest begins. Can they heal a broken world before the very power they wield consumes them completely?
