The competition could save her life… but only if she wins.
Talise is a survivor from the Storm, the criminal outer ring where hope goes to die. For ten years, she has trained at the academy, fueling her magic with the desperate promise to lift her family out of poverty. She is the underdog, the outcast, and the one student who literally cannot afford to fail.
Aaden Sato is everything she is not. Wealthy, privileged, and born in the Crown, he wields fire with an arrogance that burns. He is her only true competition for the title of Master Shaper, and he knows it. When he unveils a fire sculpture no one can match, Talise realizes that playing by the rules will only guarantee her defeat.
To beat him, she must attempt the impossible: shaping ice while running fire through her veins. It is a technique that kills the reckless, but Talise has run out of safe options. She must master the dangerous duality of her magic or be cast back into the Storm forever.
Ice Crown is the first book in the complete no spice epic fantasy romance series, The Elements of Kamdaria. If you like gripping rivalries, deadly trials, and slow burn romance then you’ll love Kay L. Moody’s high-stakes adventure.
