Misty Cove Chronicles Book 1 (Linked Realms Series, #1)

Misty Cove Chronicles When reclusive workaholic Ignatius Thorn escapes into virtual reality, he‘s thrust into a realm steeped in ancient magic and perilous secrets. The mist-laced town of Misty Cove-crouched beneath the brooding Dragon Mountains-is no ordinary sanctuary. Here, his beloved half-sister Cynthia is reborn as Silvi, an elf battling prejudice and survival in a fractured, human-dominated society. Accused of assassinating the elusive mayor, Ignatius must navigate a treacherous labyrinth of bias, betrayal, and buried truths. His outsider perspective and strange talents make him a target-but also a weapon against unraveling the corruption infecting their world. Beside him, Silvi wages her own fight for justice, while Ayla, a radiant nature-wielding elf with warmth and quiet strength, joins their fragile family and brings much-needed hope to a realm gripped by suspicion. All roads lead to Zarkon Blood Rose, the enigmatic vampire lord whose whispers command the hidden veins of the realm. As stone-paved streets twist toward forbidden forests and shadowed secrets, Ignatius and his newfound kin must confront a dangerous truth: sometimes, the greatest magic is the courage to choose love over vengeance. A spellbinding blend of sword-and-sorcery adventure, haunting romance, and timeless mystery, Misty Cove Chronicles invites you to a world where identity is forged in fire, family is found in darkness, and every secret begs to be unearthed.
