Writing high magic fantasy with a sprinkle of spice

New Release Coming!
SINS OF THE PAST
Coming October 4th!
A ruined temple sunken beneath the Sand Sea...
​
Noora Duskbourne's escape from Acantha taught her that she needed to become a stronger mage if she wants to stand against the brewing darkness. Together with her brother, Azel, she sets out across Nubaria's deserts in search of a cure for those cursed with corrupted magic.
​
Their journey brings them to a sunken temple long lost to the Sand Sea. Unfathomable dangers lurk within, tainted by the raw amount of power unleashed during a battle centuries in the past.
​
Noora is willing to risk anything if it means being able to cure those afflicted with the curse, even if it means walking headfirst into danger.
​
Sins of the Past if the second book in the Darker Shade of Light series, a high magic fantasy with slow-burn spice and creatures corrupted by dark magic.

I was unable to put it down as I entered the magical world that Melissa Sasina wove with intricate detail and heartfelt passion.
