Ashmarked: An enemies-to-lovers phoenix rider romantasy with soulbonded rivals, deadly flame trials, and a cursed academy forged in godfire. by Seraphine Vale
🔥 Enemies by fate. Bound by fire. Survived by love. 🔥

At Emberkeep Citadel, phoenix riders are chosen through the soulbond—an ancient flame rite that links two souls through fire, magic, and pain. Those who pass the Trials of Flame earn their phoenix. Those who fail… burn.

Seraphina Virell is an exile marked by the forbidden Ashbrand—cursed, unstable, and one mistake away from execution.
Ashen Korr is a wingleader with no bond, feared for his cold precision and ruthless control.

They want nothing to do with each other. But the fire god’s chosen phoenix disagrees—marking them both with a shared soulbond they can’t escape.

Now, bound to each other by sacred flame and forbidden magic, they must survive the brutal academy, twisted politics, and each other’s secrets. Because the Ashmark isn’t just a curse.

It’s a prophecy.

And it burns for war.
