Aurelian the Severant was the most feared enforcer of the Astral Court, a man whose magic could end wars.
On the eve of a final, devastating battle, he chose something unthinkable. He walked away.
Stepping through a forbidden portal with only his sharp-witted, espresso-loving cat at his side, Aurelian vanished into exile, determined to bury his power where no one would ever find it. What he did not expect was Laulea, a lush, living island that appears only to those who need a new beginning.
As Laulea hums beneath his feet and strangers offer him welcome instead of fear, Aurelian learns that hiding his magic will not heal him, but belonging just might. And on an island with a gentle power all its own, even a man forged as a weapon can learn to begin again.
Where the Warm Wind Waits is the first book in a cozy fantasy series about second chances, found family, and the radical power of choosing peace.
For readers who loved the warmth of Legends & Lattes and the emotional depth of The House in the Cerulean Sea, but long for lush island magic and a former inquistor's redemption.Also in
