The Darkness Within: Why You Need to Read Ireiale's Choice (Releasing November 7, 2025)

What happens when the line between salvation and damnation becomes impossibly thin?

If you thought Ireiale's Peril tested Ena's limits, prepare yourself. Book Two is where everything gets deliciously complicated.

When Love Becomes the Most Dangerous Magic of All

Ena survived the first book's trials, but the real danger was just beginning. In Ireiale's Choice, the village healer turned Stone Guardian faces her most impossible challenge yet, not from an external enemy, but from the seductive pull of darkness itself.

Weylin isn't just a villain anymore.

The ancient being known as Eth'razel, the Shadow Eater, has set his sights on Ena in ways that blur every line between enemy and ally, between corruption and connection. His whispers promise power beyond imagination. His touch awakens something she never knew she craved. And worst of all? He might actually care.

The Choice That Changes Everything

This isn't a simple story of good versus evil. It's about the space between, that razor's edge where temptation wears a beautiful face and speaks in truths that hurt more than lies.

What would you sacrifice for power? What would you forgive for love? And how do you save someone who might be saving you right back?

As Ena's lavender eyes begin to shift crimson, as the Elder Stone's power mingles with darker influences, readers will find themselves asking the question that haunts every page: Is she being corrupted, or is she finally becoming who she was always meant to be?

A Cast Caught in the Crossfire

• Ronan's protective instincts spiral into something far more dangerous than anyone suspected

• Rahna must balance her warrior training with her healer's heart as she watches her friend slip away

• Ava and Grey struggle to keep their group together as trust fractures and alliances shift

The Question You Need to Answer

When the ritual is interrupted and Ena lies unconscious, marked by blood and bound by magic to the very being who seeks to claim her, one thing becomes clear: this war isn't over. It's barely begun.

And the most dangerous battlefield isn't Kingshold or the Shadow's fortress.

It's Ena's own heart.
