Series background & context
The Forged Chronicles is a connected-world paranormal romance series about inherited darkness, dangerous magic, and the effort to build a life beyond family damage. It begins with James, a Guardian whose father left a terrible legacy behind.
In Forged in Stone, James has spent years protecting someone important to his world while living under the shadow of his father's violence. Ainsley is stuck in a lonely life of dead-end jobs and family betrayal. When James unexpectedly enters her life, their worlds collide just as the darkness he has avoided catches up with him.
The past does not stay buried.
The next books, Forged in Ice, Forged in Fire, and Forged in Light, follow James and Ainsley as love, identity, and supernatural danger become tightly linked. The series also connects with the earlier Afterglow Trilogy. Begin with Forged in Stone for the full emotional arc and the best introduction to James, Ainsley, and the threat they face.
