Downloading At the Heart of War: Danaus & Jayden (Tales from the Veil #1)

At the heart of war there are always two sides…The one who stays and the one who goes.
Bound by love, distanced by war, and separated by sacrifice, Jayden and Danaus find an unexpected reunion through the power of words. War took Jayden away, and Danaus must confront the remnants of their love in a ceremony meant to honor her sacrifice. Instead, it resurfaces old wounds and unveils a miraculous connection hidden within Jayden's quiver – their wartime letters.
As Danaus reconstructs the final months of their lives through these letters, she confronts a spectrum of emotions. Their correspondence paints a vivid picture of love, loss, and grief, exposing a truth about Jayden's death kept hidden from the world. This revelation shakes Danaus to her core, challenging her perceptions of Jayden, Queen Sekhmet, and, most profoundly, herself.

Danielle M. Orsino is an award-winning, bestselling fantasy novelist whose lifelong vision is to create whimsical realms that her readers can escape to. Her compelling word-weaving pays homage to a multitude of personal muses, from Chris Claremont and George Pérez, to Anne Rice, Jim Henson, and Wonder Woman.

The creative spark of storytelling has been with Danielle ever since she was a child, but martial arts and her nursing career took center stage into adulthood. Then, on a day like any other, the creative spark of storytelling was reignited in Danielle during the most unexpected of moments: while she was treating one of her patients. Seeing that they longed for a distraction during their arduous treatments, the floodgates of inspiration soon burst forth. So Danielle took it upon herself to tell them a story; a fantastical narrative that would leave the confines of that IV room's walls and land upon a page. Before she knew it, what started as an imaginative tale to pass the time turned into a book, followed by an entire series: The Birth of the Fae.
