When two infants are swapped, worlds collide.
Far beyond the mortal world, Máhí-a fierce Nezkwah warrior-has made an unthinkable sacrifice. Charged with protecting her valley, she swaps her newborn changeling sister for a mortal child, believing it's the only way to catalyze a sacred prophecy. But such power demands a cost, and Máhí's choice threatens to unravel everything she holds dear.
Now grown up and living a mortal life in the southern United States, Jade has always felt like an outsider. Her restless fae spirit draws her to the untamed wilderness, where the ancient forest beckons her soul. But when strange visions pull her into a realm of shadow and magic, she begins to uncover the truth about her fractured past-and the destiny she can no longer outrun.
Known to her birth family as Sekowah, Jade is returned to her homeland, thrust into a dangerous struggle for survival, where allies are scarce, dragons are enslaved, and betrayal lurks at every turn. She leans on Gavril, irresistible commander of the Nezkwah Fleet, to help her tease out the truth. Drawn to the mountain temple to see the enigmatic Keeper, she discovers a power within herself she never imagined-one tied to the very fate of both realms.
Caught between two worlds, and facing a confrontation with Zincubus, overlord of the southern bog territory, she must face her deepest fears, confront ancient secrets, and choose whether to return to the home she loves-or embrace the destiny she was born to fulfill.
Cove of Crossing is a genre-bending, atmospheric and emotionally gripping fantasy sci-fi tale for fans of epic portal fantasy. This first book in the Nezkwah Trilogy weaves magic, sacrifice, and destiny into a story of heartbreak and self-discovery.
