*Booky Call's #1 most swiped Romantasy of 2024*

War took her life. But the strength of her words has the power to defy death...

General Jayden, the hero of the Battle of Drystan, is remembered for her final act of bravery-sacrificing herself to save her platoon from a devastating Acid-Breather dragon ambush. But the truth behind her death is far more complicated.
Danaus, her surviving partner and a powerful political leader, has buried her grief behind duty and discipline. She views love as a luxury the war stole from her-until a collection of Jayden's letters is unearthed, revealing an artist's soul, a justice-seeker's fire, and a woman torn between peace and sacrifice.
As Danaus relives Jayden's final days through her own words, she discovers the truth of a love that never truly died-and a final letter that may shatter everything she thought she knew.
With the help of Jayden's unfiltered, truth-telling aunt Wendoura, Danaus must face the ghosts of war, the weight of legacy, and the chance to forgive-not just Jayden, but herself.

At the Heart of War is an LGBTQIA+ fantasy novella set in Orsino's mythic Fae universe. A deeply emotional story perfect for fans of heartfelt romantasy, dragon lore, and lovers grappling with loss and legacy.
