Description
In Media, magic is a death sentence. Can love help their escape?
In the totalitarian city of Media, magic is outlawed and enforced with deadly precision. The walls are high, the rules absolute, and freedom a distant dream.
Single mother Dr. Malin Neldoreth never imagined her daughter, Ellie, possessed forbidden powers. When rogue smuggler Will Hawkson witnesses Ellie's magic, he knows the danger—his own sister died for less. Determined to protect her, Will devises a plan to gain Malin’s trust and get them both to safety.
Malin must sacrifice everything to save her daughter. Will must face his past to forge a future. As their slow-burn romance deepens, they race against time, hunted by enforcers who will stop at nothing. Together, they must defy the city, survive the odds, and find hope in one another.
With vivid world-building, emotionally rich characters, and edge-of-your-seat action, Escape from Media blends the dystopian danger of An Ember in the Ashes with the raw vulnerability of found family and forbidden powers.
This is Book One in the Echoes of Aloria series.
If you like this... Journey to Aloria, book 2 in the series, is already published, and Welcome to Aloria, book 3, is scheduled for July 2026. A dystopian fantasy romance that will pull you in and an emotional story that will hold onto you.
