About this eBook

A Royal Hunt

A Hidden Prophecy

A Destiny Unveiled


Fae Princess Avalynn Stromm is next in line for the throne and will one day rule all of Faevenly. But instead of fussing over ballgowns and suffering through palace politics, she’d rather be out exploring and hunting. Or, better yet, competing in the highly desired Summit Range Hunt alongside the realm’s greatest warriors.


Mateo Vela is a lowborn half-fae living in the dreaded Sublands. He longs for a better life where his family doesn't have to struggle for necessities. So when the High King of Faevenly opens his prestigious hunt to competitors from his province, he has his chance to change his fate at last. But whether that destiny ends in glory or death is yet to be seen.


Before the hunt even begins, whisperings of prophecy and revenge begin to circulate, and Mateo is at the center of it. And when Avalynn and Mateo are thrust into the dangerous hunt, they’d just as soon have each other’s heads than work together…until they are faced with a common threat and discover there's much more at stake than crossing the finish line first. 


Secrets emerge, long-buried rivalries resurface, and Avalynn and Mateo must form an unlikely alliance if they are to make it out of the hunt alive. Not to mention the undeniable pull growing between them neither one saw coming.


A Storm Rises is book one in the Bloodlines Legacy Series.


*Please note: This series is a sequel series to the Fae Bloodlines Series. However, these series’ can be read in any order. Readers are encouraged to read the content warning in the Author’s Note inside the book.*

I'm so excited to get back into this world. Mateo and Avalynn. Two unlikely people get sucked into each other. The twits and turns with the plot keep you anchored into the story. It's a book you will not want to put down! Loved it! Highly recommend a must read. But if you want an even better experience, read the Fae Bloodlines first.

A Storm Rises - a review by Rosemary Kenny. Rose Garcia cleverly combines a flavour of Suzanne Collins's The Hunger Games and a soupçon of Andrew Einspruch's Princess Eloise Hydra Gumball III's, (in The Western Lands and All That Really Matters). Her unique style continues with Princess Avalynn Stromm, who's similarly heir to a kingdom...in this case, Faevenly. There's also a Gale Hawthorne-like character called Mateo Vela, who's part-Fae, a skilled hunter - and her deadly rival in the High King's Royal Hunt. A thrilling fantasy epic by Rose Garcia that you must not miss...get a copy of The Storm Rises, (Book 1 of The Fae Bloodlines) today!

This was a page turner. I found it to be wonderfully written with excellent world building. The characters were excellent and it has a lot of twists and turns with a surprise ending. This author has earned her spot on the favorites list with this one and I can't wait for book 2. Avalynn has always wanted to join The Summit Range hunt. So when her chance comes a long she takes it. Her excitement is put on hold though when her evil father tells her what he wants her to do. She must make sure that Mateo comes in last. A new rule for the games is that the last place finisher will be given the fate of death. Mateo Vela is half fae and very nice on the eyes, at least Avalynn thinks so. He is the outsider in these games and he knows it. He has to win in order to save his family from a killing sickness and provide some needed supplies for his people. As all of the hunters plot against him, his resolve never fails. Avalynn watches Mateo as they proceed in the hunt & starts to realize that her f
