The Bloodstone Touch is a dark fantasy romance following Amara Vale, the illegitimate daughter forced to enter a deadly tournament under her dead brother's stolen identity. Trapped between two dangerous heirs, cold, guarded Cassian Draven and charming, ruthless Lucien Veyr, Amara must survive thirty days of lethal trials while a fifty-year-old prophecy threatens to consume them all. When the tournament's rules suddenly change, turning every touch into a stolen memory, Amara realizes her greatest danger isn't the arena itself but the truth being hidden about her brother's death, her mother's disappearance, and the reason the Bloodstone Arena has been waiting for her all along.With a slow-burn love triangle, high-stakes political intrigue, and a mystery that deepens with every trial, this is a story about identity, forbidden love, and the cost of surviving a system built to destroy the people it claims to protect.

Every five years, seven heirs enter the Bloodstone Tournament. Only one leaves with their magic. Amara Vale was never supposed to enter. She is the bastard daughter of a minor lord, hidden from society until her legitimate brother drowns himself the night before the tournament. Now her father has given her a choice. Take her brother's place. Win. Or never come home. Inside the Bloodstone Arena, Amara must survive thirty days against six deadly heirs, including two men she should stay far away from. Cassian Draven is the feared heir to Elarion's most powerful house. Cold, ruthless, and haunted by the curse that killed his mother, he should see Amara as an enemy. Instead, he can't seem to stay away from her. Lucien Veyr is Cassian's beautiful rival, a charming liar who has betrayed everyone who ever trusted him. He offers Amara something Cassian never will. A way out. But fifty years ago, an oracle predicted that two rival heirs would bleed for the same woman. One would fall by her hand. The other by her heart. That is why male and female heirs are forbidden to touch. Yet the Bloodstone Arena has its own plans. And when its rules suddenly change, Amara realizes surviving the tournament may be the least dangerous thing she has to worry about. Because someone is hiding the truth about her brother's death. Someone knows who her mother really was. And the arena seems to have been waiting for Amara all along.
