Fire X Sand

Taryn fights monsters. Lucien is one. Forced to team up by the very council she’s made to serve, Taryn finds herself trapped with Lucien—a vampire with too many secrets and a smile that makes her blood run hot. In the midst of growing dangers, the two of them must work together to survive. But the closer they get, the harder it becomes to tell where the real threat lies—outside their walls, or between them. Lucien knows better than to care. He’s spent years perfecting the art of detachment, but something about Taryn makes it impossible to stay indifferent. The fire she carries is fierce, dangerous—and every moment with her only stokes the flames higher. Bound by circumstance and haunted by shadows neither of them can outrun, Taryn and Lucien are playing a game they can’t afford to lose. The fire between them grows hotter with every step, but giving in might cost them everything. Some fires are meant to burn. Others consume. This one could destroy them both.

Kairo is a boy from the distant future, where technology governs every aspect of life, and human emotions are subdued by advancements that make human connection sterile and efficient. He lives in a world where space travel and AI are common, but true emotional bonds have become increasingly rare. A twist of fate sends Kairo hurtling back in time to ancient Egypt—an era where gods and rituals still rule, and the land is ruled by wisdom and mysticism. In this new world, he meets Amun, a royal boy with a deep spiritual connection to the land, its gods, and its people. Amun is everything Kairo’s world is not: he’s passionate, connected to his traditions, and lives a life full of meaning, yet bound by the limits of his time. Thrown together by fate, Kairo and Amun form an unlikely bond. Kairo, desperate to return to his own time, is captivated by Amun’s wisdom and warmth, while Amun is intrigued by Kairo’s strange ways and otherworldly knowledge. But as their bond deepens, they find themselves at the mercy of forces beyond their control. Kairo struggles with the inevitable passage of time and the very real possibility that his future will soon pull him away from the boy he’s come to love.

Eternal Sands is a sweeping, emotional tale of love across eras, exploring the intersections of time, destiny, and the unyielding power of the human heart.
