In Keret-Amu, a life exists only when its name is written in clay.
Mira has spent her life preserving the names of the dead. As one of the few women able to read and write, she understands that a single mark on a tablet can determine who is remembered-and who disappears forever.
But when Mira discovers that the laws of her ancient city are deliberately erasing poor children from its records, obedience is no longer possible.
Promised to Prince Solan yet drawn to Aren, a man without recognized ancestry, Mira is trapped between duty and a forbidden love that could condemn them both. As drought tightens its grip on Keret-Amu and a powerful priesthood turns fear into law, she uncovers a hidden system of debt, corruption, and forgotten lives.
To save a nameless child, Mira must risk her position, her future, and even her own place in history.
The Mother of Lost Names is an emotional ancient-world historical romance filled with forbidden love, political intrigue, moral courage, faith, sacrifice, and the fight to protect those history tried to erase.
For readers who enjoy powerful female protagonists, immersive ancient settings, slow-burning romance, and unforgettable stories about love confronting injustice.
Some laws are written to preserve order. Others must be broken to preserve humanity.
