About Roots and Rebellion

After returning to the rebels and helping defeat Maven, Alina Everglen believes she has finally found where she belongs—beside Kael Stormborne and the cause they now share. But war leaves little room for certainty. When long-buried truths about Kael’s past come to light, the fragile trust between them begins to fracture, and the place Alina fought so hard to claim no longer feels secure.

Drawn into the restless heart of the capital, Alina encounters a different kind of rebellion—and Darius Roseheart, whose bold vision and easy warmth awaken something in her she cannot ignore. As tensions rise and loyalties blur, Alina finds herself torn between two men, two futures, and two very different ways of fighting for change.

While the Crown tightens its grip on the Gifted and dangerous new weapons emerge, the war is quietly shifting into something far more dangerous. As passion, loyalty, and doubt collide, Alina must decide where her heart—and her power—truly belong.

Roots and Rebellion is a sweeping romantasy of forbidden magic, divided loyalties, and the courage it takes to choose your own path.
