Throne of Broken Wings by M. R. Polish

 Throne of Broken Wings

Ash King Series ~ Book 3

by M.R. Polish

Publication Date: September 30, 2023

"The stars will fade before my love."

Caitin's powers have awakened, and it is only her mate's blood she craves. When she is told of his disappearance, she goes after him. There was no soul she wouldn't kill, no kingdom she wouldn't burn, no future she wouldn't sacrifice to save him. The Darkness had taken enough. It could not have him too.

Layke would gladly endure everything if it meant his mate was safe. They could drain him of all blood, use him as a puppet, play with his mind... as long as it wasn't Caitin. Then she was there, with red wings and fire. She was glorious and fierce, fighting to free him.

But his freedom wasn't the end. They would have to unveil the secrets of the past and ask the gods for help. With their friends, they find life and death. But neither of them were prepared for the sacrifices that would be made. After all, only one summoner could reign.

Are you ready to soar?, January 29, 2023

I have loved these characters & their world from the very first glimpse received, but Throne of Broken Wings far outshines the rest! Everything we thought we knew tests us as truths come to light & hard decisions are made. Far more intense than the previous in the series on every level including the spice. Caitlin, Layke, Mym, Vorigan, Finnian, Tyriv, Ilaira, & Brodrick are still my faves yet we get to know some new unforgettable characters… & some we would have gladly thrown into the trials. If you enjoy an action packed emotionfest of mates, fates, & all that awaits this will surely please you! I loved every bit of it!! Next please! The gods have some work to do yet!

M.R. Polish 

M.R. Polish was born in Idaho, a long, long, long, maybe not that long time ago.... Writing has always been there for her. Growing up, her mind was filled with stories, some she shared and others she filed away to write down later in life. It wasn't until 2011 that she decided to publish her stories for everyone to enjoy. Her first award and when writing became more than just an idea was in the 5th grade. She won the scary story contest for the school newspaper. It is one story she still has tucked away for memories. Her teacher told her she could be anything she wanted and that she had a talant for writing, being creative and drawing people into her stories. M.R. took that to heart and continued to write, although mostly in secret until recent years.

Now you can find her enjoying life with her family - wrangling her four kids, setting traps in the house with toys for unsuspecting victims (aka, her husband) and writing down all her crazy and fun stories.

The Heir of Shadow & Stone Release

The Heir of Shadow & Stone

Shadow & Stone Series

by Rue Volley

Publication Date: March 25, 2023

BRED TO KNEEL. BORN TO RISE.

A Maiden

Sixteen-year-old Everleigh Aeress has spent her life preparing to serve the Kingdom of Stone.

She's bathed in milk and lavender, worn fine silks, and sipped on vanilla honey chamomile tea to soothe and prepare her body for what's to come, along with the other Stone Maidens who were all chosen at birth by the purity stone.

Soon they will all face the trial of Acheron, their Serpent God, to prove they are worthy of carrying an heir to the throne.

A Future King

Arrowe Brumah spends his days charming whomever he desires, but none matter to the boy who longs to be King.

His heart belongs to no one. His true desire is power. His focus is on the crown.

But a chance meeting in the Library of Acheron threatens to unravel his plans when a girl with emerald green eyes unknowingly bewitches him.

A Vampire Prince

Cullen Moore, chosen heir to The Kingdom of Shadow, spends his days reading books and sipping on blood rose tea.

He longs for someone to challenge him. But none do.

Three-hundred years have passed since he received the immortal gift from his father, The King of Shadow, Raiden Moore, and he's given up on love.

But something threatens their Kingdom and every vampire behind the Shadow Gate.

Cullen's mother seeks his help, and he is happy to answer the call.

But what he finds outside the walls of The Kingdom of Shadow proves to be more than he could have ever imagined.

*This book is not meant for those who are easily offended by age-gap romances with vampires, forced captivity, toxic sexual relationships, morally gray characters, manipulative coercion, and opinions against organized religion and stripping women of their reproductive rights.

If you can handle all that, I welcome you to the world of Shadow and Stone.

The Fallen Ash Queen ~ Review

The Fallen Ash Queen

Ash King Series ~ Book 2

by M.R. Polish

Publication Date: September 30, 2022

 “Caitin, I knew from that night on the ferry that you are my mate.” 

 Caitin never imagined she would survive the Trials, let alone discover she was the prince’s mate. Her time alone with Layke made her realize her feelings were more than just having her soul bound to his. His touch sent her magic into a frenzy until it was all she craved. 

 Layke hungered for more than her blood and there was nothing in any kingdom or demand from the gods that could tear him away from his mate. The instinct to rip anyone’s heart out if they touched her raged just under the surface. 

 But he couldn’t protect her from the one thing that could kill them both… her magic. 

The perfect follow up to book one in every way!, October 16, 2022 

We are reunited with our favorite characters & introduced to many more. This world is addicting, entertaining, & unique. The Alorians intrigued me & then the Akyell. I am still in awe of the diverse strengths & bonds created from Caitlin, Mym, Finnian, Layke, Vorigan, & so many others. We are reminded true power is not always measured in the strength of one’s hand, & how one handles the trials they’re thrown into affects far more than what is seen in the moment. 

That ending though!!!!!! I can not wait to see the outcome of the war ahead & all that shall be revealed!!

Crown of Blood and Wings ~ Review

Crown of Blood and Wings 

Book 1 ~ Ash Kingdom Series

by M.R. Polish

She was supposed to stay hidden. He was supposed to die. The Trials were created to dispose of the weak. There are no allies. Only enemies competing for the same reward—receive the king's protection from the bloodthirsty Alorians and a bag filled with coins. After twenty-two years, Caitriona Delahorian thought she was skilled at the art of hiding when it came to the draft. If the king knew she had magic in her blood, she'd be forced to enter the Trials. No purse filled with payment for her servitude. No alluring invitation blessed with security for her family. No. She'd be nothing more than a prisoner. If she lived. With the rebellion marching to her door, she realizes hiding is no longer an option. Stepping out of the shadows to join the fight and embrace the magic that got her parents killed, Caitriona makes a choice to risk everything for other magic wielders, herself, and to avenge her parents. On the eve of the next draft, she is discovered by guards and shackled, tossed into the dungeon with the willing participants to await her turn in the Trials. If she passes her first test, she can move on and maybe escape. But an arrogant, stubborn, roguish, albeit extremely handsome, self-centered captain won't leave her side. Captain Hawthorne's blade was rumored to slice through the strongest armor. Yet, it was his eyes that cut through her. There was more hiding behind his façade. But she was the queen at hiding things. If she stays in the Trials, she is in danger of losing more than her freedom, and the king will acquire a dangerous new weapon.

Vampire/Fantasy Romance

Oh my Alorian!, May 23, 2022

Do NOT pass this one up!  I am LOVING this world & the extra challenges they’ve survived! The trials are a whole other ballgame, & had me freaking out all the way through. Think Hunger Games meets Salem Witch Trials with a bit more magic & romance. So many twists & unseen factors. Darkness below rearing it’s ugly head, a king determined to win at any cost. I tried to drag it out … to make it last a bit longer, but my curiosity won. I couldn’t wait any longer. And now I must wait for book 2. *sigh* #WorthTheWait #NeedMoreNow
