The Elves have come down from the sky in their ships, their countenances full of light and their bodies, power. But they rule over us humans with iron fists, and without mercy. Vampires stalk the streets, lurking in shadows and the cover of darkness. Their lust for blood is never sated, and the nights are filled with the screams of their victims. I’m just a street rat, a trash picker. I didn’t expect him to choose me. The Prince of Elves could have anyone, so why me? Even as my heart sings at the elf’s close proximity, I still love the boy who left me, disappearing into the city’s corrupt underworld. I don’t even know if he’s still alive. Stars reign. Rebellion brews. And with my already uncertain future disintegrating into chaos, I don’t know who to turn to, or who to trust. Stars Descend is book 1 of a series, and is not a standalone novel.

My name is Stella. I'm just a simple girl with simple books, food and a warm bed to sleep in. With Eldaren, the prince of elves, in my life, I may have found a place to call home. He and I share a common goal. Heal the planet. Eldaren tasks me with finding a gaia; a being who possesses Earth magic. But searching the elven library proves fruitless, and I begin to doubt that such a person exists. And now, with vampires murdering civilians and earthquakes threatening to rip my city apart, finding a way to protect Liberty becomes more important than ever. There's one person who might be able to help me; someone I once thought lost forever. Wilder.

Together, Wilder and I found a lead on the location of a gaia. It puts me one step closer to helping Eldaren heal this planet. But the last time I saw Wilder, he was fighting for his life—and mine. I don’t know if he’s okay. And now, I have problems of my own. Someone’s made me a target, and I’m being hunted. It doesn’t make any sense. I’m just an ordinary girl. I’m not special. Why does someone want to kill me? My ignorance may prove my ruin, and I need answers before time runs out.

Eldaren and I have left my home city of Liberty. He is convinced that a gaia’s powers are vital to saving the planet, so we search for such a being. I leave my brother and Wilder behind as I travel alongside the elven prince. The island we’re currently investigating is wild, green, and covered in trees. It’s vibrant and full of life and is completely different from the polluted, chaotic city I grew up in. There’s something otherworldly about this forest, though, and after I meet a mysterious young man named Bren, I come to realize that this island is thick with magic, secrets, and danger.

Who am I? Despite being thrown into the paranormal affairs of space elves and vampires, I’d thought I was just a normal girl. I was wrong. I’ve discovered there is something more to my past, something I have forgotten. I am more than I assumed. Bren knows something about me, and he’s not telling. Maybe I should give it up. Perhaps whatever is in my past isn’t worth digging into. But I can’t shake the feeling that whatever is behind me may very well change the future that’s before me. Secrets beckon. History stirs. I have to know who I am.

My name is Stella. I always thought I was a normal girl, but of course, in this crazy world, my past can’t be that simple, can it? I’m a sylph, a fae that can manipulate air currents, controlling a magic-induced wind called the Breath of Eema. But I’m also a changeling. My fae family didn’t want me and traded me for a human child when I was just a tiny thing. They traded me because I’m weak. My magic surfaces sporadically, not at will. And for the fae, magic is everything. If I can’t call on my sylph powers, what can I do to help Eema? The planet is dying. Of that, I am certain. And the time to save her is running out. Fae awaken. The night stirs. I need to invoke my magic.
