Surprise! For everyone who’s been asking when Book Three will be released, it’s official—Dawn of Emerald and Ash is coming early next year!! 💚🖤 Sharing this world with all of you has been one of the most wonderful experiences of my life, and it is so bittersweet for me that Maila’s story will be coming to an end soon.Having said that…no, your eyes are not deceiving you! I have another release coming in late 2027!! ✨ Set in the same world as The Council of Cyllene, this series will bring the steamy romance, bantering found family, and high-stakes action from TCOC with a setting that’s both fresh and familiar, a large new cast of characters, and lots of twists. 🤭 Everything else I can share right now:• This series has been in the works since October 2024, right after I finished Enchantment of Silver and Sea.• The story is fully plotted. 😉• All books have titles (that I can’t wait to share!)• I’m already in love with the characters.• Although this is a new series with a new cast, it is set in the same world as The Council of Cyllene. Take from that what you will. 👀Thank you to everyone who’s been cheering for, worrying for, sometimes yelling at (and they sometimes deserve it 💀), and following along with Maila, Kieran, Nya, and the rest of The Council of Cyllene world. Your support is what makes it possible for me to keep writing and publishing. You are the very best!! And I hope you love everything I have in store for you next year. ❤️.....🏷️ #enchantmentofsilverandsea #tidesofgoldandoblivion #thecouncilofcyllenetrilogy #steamyromantasy #dystopianromance by @tarastraight

Introducing Maila and Kieran, courtesy of the insanely talented @luxury_banshee! To say that María captured these two (and this scene) how I had pictured would be an understatement. The first time I saw this in color, I definitely got emotional! An enormous thank-you to María for bringing these characters that I love so much to life, and for also being an absolute joy to work with. ❤️Find Maila and Kieran’s story in Enchantment of Silver and Sea. Available through major retailers and Kindle Unlimited. ✨.....🏷️ #enchantmentofsilverandsea #luxurybanshee #characterart #mailaandkieran #romantasybooks #dystopianbooks #indiebooks #forbiddenlove #morallygraymmc #slowburn by @tarastraight

Stopped into @spellboundbookstorefl last week to restock and brought my assistant with me. I told her she could pick out any book she wanted as payment for her services, and she wasted no time hurrying to the local shelf to grab Princessability to Roll Differently by Cecilia Del Toro. 🧜‍♀️Friendly reminder that you can pick up a signed copy of Enchantment of Silver and Sea by yours truly with included goodies anytime at Spellbound. And if you have a little one, check out @princessability!QOTD: What was your last bookish treat to yourself?.....🏷️ #spellboundbookstore #floridaauthors #indieauthorsofinstagram #shoplocal #enchantmentofsilverandsea by @tarastraight
