A prophesied King destined to be Great.
A Seer sent to clear the path.
And a soldier foretold to do incredible things.In the wilds of Arkaemor, Foxxglove and Iris Belamour seek Celestelvyra, a mystical land most believe to be a place of legends and fairytales.

When Foxx has her first vision in the desert, the ground shifts beneath them. Soon after, they meet a handsome stranger in the jungle who knows just a little too much, and it doesn't take long for them to realize the magnitude of secrets still left uncovered.
Along with the help of a few unlikely friends, the sisters will uproot the nations and turn Arkaemor on its head.
We're all seeking truth, but are we willing to accept it, whatever the cost?
And who, if any, will survive the destruction?
The Great King and the Seer is an epic adventure. A rich fantasy with intricate world building, lives intertwined over the tapestry of time, monsters and magic, and good versus evil. It is seeped in love and heartbreak, trauma and healing, faith and hopelessness, trust and betrayal, heroes and villains, and fighting the darkness that resides inside us all.
**Though The Great King and the Seer is a closed-door romance with no spice, it leans more toward NA, with intense and sometimes graphic themes and descriptions, as well older main characters ranging from 18-35 years old.**
Read what everyone is saying about Seeking Elvyra:
"This is more than just a fantasy tale, and while it is that, it is also the beginning of a great journey of finding yourself, your place in the world, and what it all means...Full of magic, adventure, and rich characters, the author does a great job world building and bringing Arkaemor to life. I sped through it and am eagerly awaiting the sequel."
"Wow. Just...wow.
This was a ride. An epic ride of love, anger, frustration, joy.... This will make you question what is family, grief, a lie. That ending. This author? One to watch. This book? The beginning to the next great epic series. I was not expecting to be sucked in this hard or to be wanting book two this much ... like right now."
"This is an epic journey with detailed worldbuilding, magic systems, uncovering powers, and fantasy elements including medical creatures and realms...There are lots of twists and the story keeps you invested to uncover more secrets and truths. You're never sure if the characters are allies or enemies as everyone seems to have their own agenda, making it difficult for Iris and Foxx to trust anyone, even their potential love interests. This is a beautifully rich YA adventure and high fantasy journey, and the start of a great series. Looking forward to reading more!"
