🌙 Monte Highlands - Crescent Glow
Book Two of The Monte Highlands Chronicles
by Bonita Werner
Where love, magic, and memory take root.
The land remembers her name. The sky remembers his heart.
The Highlands have grown quiet. The rivers no longer sing as freely, and the once-living trees stand in mourning. But within the silence, a heartbeat stirs - one born of light and shadow.
Aeloria and Kael fought to protect their world from those who would claim its magic. Now, in the wake of their sacrifice, their daughter Lyara grows beneath the crescent glow of an uncertain sky. She carries within her the blood of both guardian and betrayer - a power the land itself struggles to understand.
As the poachers' descendants rise again, their greed sharpened by vengeance, the Highlands must awaken once more. Aeloria calls upon the earth, the rivers, and the wind to defend her child, while Kael's past - and his hidden truth - threatens to tear their fragile peace apart.
When darkness returns, the mountains themselves begin to move.
Each creature - the winged giraffes, the whispering rivers, the ancient oryx - takes its place in a battle written long before memory.
And at the heart of it all stands Lyara, the child who should not have been - the bridge between two worlds, whose very existence could heal or destroy them all.
Under the crescent glow, love burns brightest before the dawn.
