A destiny she doesn’t want. A choice only she can make.

Aurora, priestess of the Isle of Akash, is wilful, headstrong and independent. And she has a gift. She can see destinies, just not her own. So when a chance encounter reveals her own destiny intertwined with the crown prince of the realm, she is so mortified that she flees the only home she has ever known, escaping through a portal from her magical world to modern day Melbourne. There she encounters Eli Daniels, champion athlete and renowned party boy, who introduces her to freedoms and feelings she could never have imagined. But when dark dreams foreshadow a deadly threat to her homeland and its most revered treasure - the Akashic Records - she is forced to choose between her duty and her newfound freedom.

As prince and heir to Sovereign Hill, William knows he must marry for political gain, not for love, so he can’t believe his luck when he falls for an ethereal Isle beauty. As he pursues the woman of his dreams, William unwittingly stumbles upon a conspiracy from within the palace that threatens to destroy not just the Akashic Records but the way of life of all who live on the Isle.

Daughter of Shadow & Flame, the first instalment in the Akashic Archives series, is a dark, reverse portal fantasy. If you like strong-willed heroines, surprising plot twists, and a hint of spice in your romance, you’ll love this first instalment in S.E. Harrison’s epic dark fantasy series.
