Book One of the COSMOSA Series
The Fateful Ones
Elevator pitch
When a young woman is forced into a marriage that binds her to a ruthless Underworld king, she becomes the vessel for an ancient, sentient power — and the object of a forbidden love that could reshape the seven realms of COSMOSA.
Long summary
The Fateful Ones opens on Farrah Christian, taken into the Underworld and bound to a marriage she never chose. What should have been a ceremony of obedience awakens the Form — an ancient power older than the seven realms of COSMOSA, watching from the darkness as kings rise and kingdoms fall.
Caught between a ruthless king who would use her, a forbidden Guardian who might save her, and a power that will not release its claim, Farrah must decide who she is willing to become before the throne decides for her.
The novel is 121,474 words across 48 chapters and an epilogue, complete and seeking representation. It carries the literary sensibility of adult crossover fantasy with the commercial hooks of contemporary romantasy — dark, mythic, morally complex, and driven by consent as a cosmic force rather than a plot device.
