Hope was dangerous for the Trimarked girl.
It’s been five weeks since Nicu saved Ember from being overcome by the power of the Veil. Since then, she has lived under the threat of discovery from those who fear her growing power.
Ember already balances on a fine line between accident and purpose; using her power intentionally will certainly bring the wrath of human, Witch and Fae alike. Though she doesn’t belong anywhere, she’s not willing to become a prisoner to any of the factions.
When a Witch Queen arrives in Trifecta with the goal to enslave the minds and bodies of magic users, Ember must take a different path: use without control. As the Queen gathers new followers, Ember may not have a choice whether she’ll expose her newfound strength if it means saving the few people she dares to call friends.
Ember has to rely on the one truth she has ever known: Fighting is her best feature.

With a rich cast of characters and deep world building, this is the book for you if you’re a fan of fast moving plots steeped in a world of magic.

Praise for Trimarked - book 1 in the Trimarked series:
Enemies become friends as friends become enemies in the engaging tale of Trimarked. Sorens seamlessly blends loyalty, bias, deception, and mystery into her page turning urban fantasy. I quickly became invested in the characters and look forward to adding the upcoming second book of the series, Afflicted, to my TBR.
So well written, I enjoyed this a lot. The characters are rich and developed. The setting is deep and detailed and I love how the three aspects intermingled. I will be awaiting the next part!
They tried to block her from magic, but her powers will not be denied.
In a town trapped within the Veil, humans, Fae, and Witches are forced to coexist. Through a fragile peace, they all agree on one thing. The Trimarked Child is dangerous.
Ember Lee is a pariah. Though she’s forced to scrounge and trade just to survive, she refuses to let the people of Trifecta bully her into submission. Her forbidden powers have defied the bonds placed on her, but as long as she can keep them a secret, she’s safe.
When someone carves their way through the barrier surrounding the city, events unfold that threaten her existence. She learns not everyone is afraid of her potential. In fact, there are those who want to use her power for themselves.
With no one to turn to, Ember must do what she has always done: Fight to survive. Because those who seek to control her are becoming desperate - with deadly and devastating consequences.
