THE CRYSTAL HEART

By M.C. Lewis

When technology steals the magic from the world, saving it may demand the ultimate sacrifice.

The world is dying.

Across the Scraplands, ancient magic fades beneath the relentless power of conduit engines-machines built to drain the very force that once sustained life. What remains is a broken land where survival comes at a cost, and trust is harder to find than hope.

Vespera is a golden tiger shifter whose connection to the natural world makes her both a threat to those who control the engines and a possible key to restoring what has been lost.

Rowan is a gifted engineer haunted by his role in creating the system that helped destroy the world. He understands the machines better than anyone-but understanding how they work doesn’t mean he knows how to undo the damage.

Forced to work together, Vespera and Rowan must confront the consequences of the past while searching for a way to bring magic back. Their uneasy alliance grows into something deeper, even as danger closes in and the cost of failure becomes unbearable.

But restoring the world’s magic may require more than courage, ingenuity, or love.

It may require a heart willing to become the world’s last source of power.

In a land caught between nature and machinery, Vespera and Rowan must decide what they are willing to sacrifice-and whether a world can truly be saved without losing the people who make it worth saving.

THE CRYSTAL HEART is a fantasy adventure about forbidden trust, the power of redemption, and a love tested by impossible choices.

Some hearts are powerful enough to save a world. Others must break to do it.
