And if a portal fantasy thriller is your jam, you can check it out here:
Two worlds. One woman. No memories.
Two worlds. One woman. No memories.
At twenty-two, Saeryn has scars she can't explain and a three year memory gap. An exotic family vacation away from her fractured past is meant to help her regain balance... except that the desert sands are calling to her with an eerie familiarity, and Malatrius—a stranger met by anything but chance—claims to know what happened during the times she can’t remember.
But to trust Malatrius’s words means believing in sorcery and traveling to another world. It also means putting her future in the hands of her father's longtime rival who has reasons to hate them both, because with every restored memory Saeryn realizes that not only did Past Saeryn keep secrets from both Malatrius and her father—she’d also made a choice that could threaten the desperate scheme she’d risked her life for.
And now Saeryn faces the same choice once more.
Losing her life will be a minor inconvenience, but losing her memories again could be the end of her.
Memories of Sorcery and Sand is a standalone character driven fantasy with dual timelines and told both in 1st and 3rd POV. If you like books that slowly unveil their mysteries and secrets, get your copy now!
