Dragons of Blackmoor: (The Bloodwrought Cycle Book 1)
About
Some monsters are born. Others are made in the silence between questions.
She came back to forget. Blackmoor came alive to remind her.
After a year of silence, Melissa Moore is ready to put her family’s disappearance behind her. Her plan is simple: keep her head down, survive college, and stay out of the spotlight that once swallowed her whole.
But Blackmoor isn’t the kind of town that lets secrets stay buried.
When two locals vanish without a trace—including a student from her university—Melissa finds herself at the center of a chilling pattern. Whispers of old magic, haunted bloodlines, and a town that remembers everything begin to surface. And watching from the shadows is Xylar Thorne: enigmatic, untouchable, and unsettlingly drawn to her.
He’s not human. And deep down, neither is she.
As the past claws its way back, Melissa must decide if uncovering the truth is worth becoming the thing her family feared most.
A slow-burn supernatural fantasy full of secrets, grief, and tension that cuts deeper than claws. For fans of atmospheric worldbuilding, layered romance, and the kind of mystery that leaves bruises.
