Pre-order Unveiled - book two in the Confluence Academy series - now!

Nessa Thorne survived her first year at Confluence Academy—barely. With an ancient water dragon tethered to her soul and rumours of her power spreading beyond the academy walls, she's no longer just an offering fighting to stay alive.

She's a threat.

As a second-year student, new responsibilities await, but so do new dangers. The unbound leaders Lorkan and Milena Grace are amassing forces beyond the walls, flying silver spiral banners as they conquer border cities. And they haven't forgotten about Nessa.

Meanwhile, Raith has returned from a mysterious legacy mission, carrying secrets of his own. The tether binding them pulses with unspoken truths, and the history between the Aurenciels and the unbound threatens to destroy whatever fragile connection remains between them.

With Confluence's brutal training intensifying and her friends caught in the crossfire, Nessa must decide where her true allegiance lies - with the Empire that would use her as a weapon, with the unbound who promise understanding of her true nature, or with herself.

Because in her second year at Confluence Academy, the most dangerous enemy might be the one she's bound to her own heart.

Full description coming soon. Pre-order today and continue Nessa's journey through the deadliest academy in the Empire.

About the Author

Penelope Bloom is the pseudonym for a husband-and-wife writing team. After years of contemporary romance, they're trading meet-cutes for magical academies and coffee shops for castles that reek of blood. They promise the banter is just as sharp, but now it comes with deadly consequences.

When not crafting happily-ever-afters or dodging deadline dragons, you'll find them hiking mountain trails, conquering walls at the local climbing gym, or hunting down the perfect pizza slice. They live in Colorado with their two daughters and three furry co-authors (who offer questionable writing advice but excellent moral support).
