The Phoenix King

The kingdom of Ravence was born of a prophecy, carved from unforgiving desert sands and ruled by the Ravence bloodline, those with the power to command the Eternal Fire. Elena Aadya Ravence is heir to the throne and the only member of her line who cannot wield the family's legendary flame. As her coronation nears, she is desperate to master a power that resists her, while her father hides secrets and an assassin named Yassen, marked by his own dark history, is drawn into the palace. The fate of a desert kingdom rests on a princess grasping for power and the killer whose past is tangled with the crown.
