Aria and Sebastian are wildly different in every way but the one that truly matters: their love for one another. But their newfound happiness is about to be torn apart. When Sebastian pulled into the parking lot of the apartment complex where he hoped to start a new life after six years trapped in an emotional hell, all he wanted was to live out his days in quiet solitude. That went out the window when he came face to face with Aria, a leather-clad goth transgender woman who towered over him and whose dark brown eyes burned with the anger that had been her constant companion since childhood. But the flames of that anger were doused the instant Sebastian told her, “You’re beautiful.” No one had ever spoken those words to Aria. Considered a freak by most people, she had few friends and intimidated everyone she met. Except Sebastian. Neither of them wanted companionship or expected to ever find happiness. And yet, as the unlikeliest of pairs who shared common interests and deep emotional and physical scars, they did. At least until the nightmare of a past they unknowingly shared caught up with them.

I remember when I thought my life would be like the fairy tales I read about. I'd do anything to go back in time when everything was so simple. When my knight in shining armor had a face and a name. When my biggest secret was that I snuck out at night to watch the stars. I'm worried that there's a sickness in me, swallowing me whole. I don't understand what's happening to me. I don't understand why the only person I can find solace in is someone I can't see. I should want justice. But I don't. I want revenge. I need vengeance like I need the air I breathe. No one can feel my pain. No one can see just how badly I've been burned. I've danced in the flames my whole life. I know how to live in the fire. But I've never come out unscathed. A piece of me always turns to ash and there is no going back. I can never be that little girl again. I'm no princess. I'm the villain. I've been consumed by the flames, and I want everything in my path to burn.

The sound of the horn pierces the apeiron, shattering the stillness of that realm. Its clarion call creates ripples, substance, something more. It is a summons, a command. There is will. There is need. And so, in reply, there is a woman. At the beginning—no—at the end—she appears, full of fury and bound by chains of prophecy. Setting off on an unexplained quest from which she is compelled to complete, and facing unnatural challenges in a land that doesn’t seem to exist, she will discover the secrets of herself, or die trying. But along the way, the obstacles will grow to a seemingly insurmountable point, and the final choice will be the biggest sacrifice yet. This is the story of a woman’s struggle against her very existence, an epic tale of the adventure and emotional upheaval on the way to face an ancient enigmatic foe. This could only have been spun from the imagination of Marie Brennan, award-winning author and beloved fantasist, beginning a new series about the consequences of war—and of fate. Cold-Forged Flame is the first in a new series by Marie Brennan. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
