The gods are gone, but their blood still courses through royal veins, shaping empires long after their abandonment. Darrow Ghaldre, the feared Kingslayer King, seeks to annihilate every other monarch and their kin to break the divine grip on mankind.
Now, twenty cycles later, peace decays as crops rot, beasts prowl, and whispers stir of god-blood that survived. Johanus Dhulos, once Ghaldre’s blade, now tends his fields in peace with his son Quintin. Until a shadow from the past comes hunting.
The end of kings was only the beginning.
Seventeen years ago, a girl was sent to another world by a glowing goddess named Aris. Blessed with powerful magical attributes—but curiously, no holy power.
And now the girl has become Mira d'Ark. She lives a peaceful life in the sun-kissed fishing town of Mermaid’s Cove.
She doesn’t fight monsters.She doesn’t wear holy robes.And she certainly doesn’t consider herself a saintess.
But the townsfolk think otherwise.
From healing wounds and calling rain, to helping lost adventurers and tending the soil, Mira's magic has touched everyone in town.
But as her seventeenth birthday dawns and cake is served at the Adventurer's Guild, a new arrival at the edge of town will gently begin to shift the tides of Mira’s peaceful world.
Because sometimes, even a girl who doesn’t believe she’s a saintess... is exactly what the world needs.

Book One of the Sarajevo SeriesThe Princess of Sarajevo
Lamija Begović enters every room like she owns it-because one day, she will. Heiress to Sarajevo's most powerful business empire, she's brilliant, untouchable, and raised to conquer. She doesn't ask for respect. She commands it.
Ayub Selimović grew up in her world, wearing the same suits, eating at the same table-but never truly belonging. After his father died driving for the Begović family, he was taken in as one of their own. He was never treated as less. But he always knew.
He's spent a decade in silence, building trust beside her brother. When he's suddenly reassigned to Lamija's team, she's forced to see what's always been there: a man of loyalty, quiet strength, and a heart that has never once strayed from hers.
Their story was never supposed to happen. But Sarajevo remembers everything-and the past always finds a way to rise.
Before the wolves, the sons, and the war-there was the princess...And the boy who waited to be seen.
