Hello all! It’s been a while since I posted, but I am working on some changes to my work. This year, I am bringing out some clean, no spice romantasy stories, both regular romantasy and fairy tale based romantasy under the name Rose Hawthorne, and all finding their beginnings in the Realm of Lumiare, which is a kingdom in a world that I’m simply going to call Golan, since the characters will eventually go beyond Lumiare.
If you loved The Dragon and The Ranger – never fear – I will return to the world of The Shattered Realms.
But if you are interested in some light romantasy, I’ve started with this short story, The First Light of Lumiare.
“When ancient magic meets destined love, a kingdom of light begins…”
A mysterious compass. A forgotten prophecy. Two seekers of truth whose paths have always intertwined.
In a realm scarred by endless wars, scholar Aria and warrior Marcus receive an impossible gift—one that will lead them through darkness into legend. But to build something new, they must first acknowledge what has lived in their hearts since childhood.
The First Light of Lumiare is a romantic fantasy prequel to The Enchanted Chronicles, weaving together sacred quests, crystal magic, and the timeless power of love to illuminate the darkness.
Step into the dawn of a new kingdom, where love and light intertwine to create something magical.
Rene (Rose) Hawthorne
