A Splintered Land

2024

Tainted magic collides with unexpected love to shatter an already fractured land Marieke is trained in the magic of songcraft, but without connections, she’s still lucky to gain a place on a foreign delegation. She hopes to learn whether Aeltas suffers the same mysterious blight as her own land—what she doesn’t expect is to suffer a near-fatal accident the moment she crosses the border. Zev has no reason to love singers. But when he finds a girl barely clinging to life, he can’t just turn aside. Even when Marieke’s identity threatens everything his family has fought for—and fought to hide—for generations, he can’t bring himself to regret helping her. Instead he finds himself pursuing her back across the border. As more accidents befall singers, Zev’s desire to protect Marieke battles with his duty to his family’s secrets. But while Marieke is blind to the past, he remains mystified about the present curse hovering over her land—and threatening to stretch into his. Neither Marieke nor Zev can deny what’s growing between them…and neither can predict what it will cost not only them but the splintered lands they love. A Splintered Land is the first installment of Heartsong, a YA fantasy trilogy set in the Sovereign Realms, where magic is harnessed by singers. When a singer with too many questions meets a farmer hiding dangerous answers, past and present collide and heart is pitted against duty. If you enjoy adventure, magic, and clean and swoony romance, enter the world of Heartsong today.

A Fractured Song

2024

Can Zev and Marieke’s bond survive her dying country and his fractured family? Marieke is more determined than ever to save her deteriorating country, and she doesn’t intend to let Zev walk away from the mystery without a fight. But with Oleand now plagued by natural disasters, time is running out. And from the capital to Sundering Canyon to the southern jungle, the answers seem always one step further from her reach. As Marieke edges closer to the secret of heartsong, Zev knows he should pull away. But every minute spent with her makes that more impossible. The last thing he wants to do is betray his family, but each time Marieke risks her life in her quest to save her country, the truth becomes increasingly harder to deny—he can’t live without her. Zev and Marieke will have to find a way to overcome the barriers that keep one another out. Because it will take the strength of two countries, and the magic of both songcraft and heartsong, to stand a chance against the forces bent on destroying all they love. A Fractured Song is the second installment of Heartsong, a YA fantasy trilogy set in the Sovereign Realms, where magic is harnessed by singers. It should be read after Book One—A Splintered Land. When a singer with too many questions meets a farmer hiding dangerous answers, past and present collide and heart is pitted against duty. If you enjoy adventure, magic, and clean and swoony romance, enter the world of Heartsong today.

A Shattered Reign

2024

Would you sacrifice your heart to save the land you love? Marieke’s quest to expose the truth and save Oleand has made her enemies. Some only want to silence her—others want her dead. With Zev by her side, she feels indestructible, but even their combined determination not to be separated doesn’t stop her from finding herself trapped without Zev and without her magic. Zev will do anything to protect Marieke, and he’s accepted that her fight to save Oleand has now become his own. But their enemies remain a step ahead of them at every turn. He was so sure he and Marieke were stronger together—he wasn’t ready for their union to be the spark that makes Oleand’s poison leak over the border to his own country. Zev and Marieke’s search has finally brought them to the answers they’ve been seeking. But the cost along the way has already been so high. Will the final price be more than they’re willing to pay? Will saving their lands require losing each other forever? A Shattered Reign is the third and final installment of Heartsong, a YA fantasy trilogy set in the Sovereign Realms, where magic is harnessed by singers. It should be read after Books One and Two. When a singer with too many questions meets a farmer hiding dangerous answers, past and present collide and heart is pitted against duty.

Deborah Grace White was more or less born reading. She grew up on a wide range of books, from classic literature to light-hearted romps. Her love of fantasy was inevitable from the time her father read the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy to her and her siblings when she was four years old. The love of reading has traveled with her unchanged across multiple continents, and carried her from her own childhood all the way to having children of her own. But if reading is like looking through a window into a magical and beautiful world, beginning to write her own stories was like discovering she could open that window and climb right out into fantasyland. Now she gets to live that childhood dream from her hometown of Adelaide, Australia, where she lives with her husband and their three little ones.
