Descend

2022

A hidden portal isn’t something most students bargain for when they enroll at Halston University. When a mysterious black envelope arrives during freshman orientation—one inviting Kyleigh Roberts to the school’s prestigious secret society—she immediately feels an unexplainable pull to pledge. What Kyleigh doesn’t realize is that getting closer to the answers she’s been searching for will force her further from everything she’s ever known. She plummets into a dark realm full of magic and twisted creatures that once only lived in her bedtime fairy tales. Grappling with explosive powers that begin to emerge, Kyleigh stumbles into a stranger—a woman with glowing eyes who claims she can help. Since Aislin discovered her gift, she’s been nothing more than a weapon—one wielded by criminals. The idea of freedom has always been just that, an idea. A luxury for those who don’t possess her talent for delivering a swift and merciful death. But for the first time, she’s given a shot at the freedom she’s craved for years. The catch? She must use her gifts one final time to carry out a mission fueled by revenge against the man least deserving of her mercy. When Kyleigh and Aislin’s stories become entangled, the two women from worlds apart must find a way to join forces against a vengeful king or risk remaining pawns in a deadly game played by those in power. The Blaze Legacy is a slow burn enemies to lovers romance full of dragons, shifters, delicious tension, and spice that builds with the series. It has dual strong female leads that each have their own romantic storyline. One character develops into an MF relationship and the other into a sapphic one.
