Wow, just wow. This book has it all. I couldn’t put it down until I finished it, and now I’m left eagerly awaiting the second installment. Nyleeria, the protagonist, embodies everything you’d want in a female lead—strong, kind, brave, loving, and full of growth. Watching her evolve throughout the story was a highlight for me. The plot is consistently engaging, with countless twists and turns that genuinely surprised me—no small feat for a seasoned reader. This book is both beautiful and magical, and I can’t recommend it enough. I’m already counting down the days until the next book arrives.

Heir of Stardust and Secrets
In the shadow of war,
love may be her greatest enemy.
Nyleeria has always lived in the darkness of loss, with only a childhood friend to bring light to her days. But when an ancient power is discovered within her, tragedy tears her family apart and thrusts her into a war between humans and fae that has smoldered for centuries.
King Thaddeus, a human ruler hardened by great loss at the hands of the fae, has vowed to protect his kingdom at any cost. When he discovers the primordial Spark lies dormant within Nyleeria, he seeks her out and offers her protection, knowing she could be the key to humankind’s survival.
As Nyleeria trains with the king to wield her unruly magic, their connection deepens, blurring the boundaries between duty and desire. But with the fae becoming a greater threat every day and Nyleeria’s power proving dangerously unstable, their bond could be her greatest strength—or her undoing.
With the veil between realms weakening, Nyleeria must navigate a life filled with peril, where trust is a luxury and love could be the most dangerous weapon of all.
Torn apart by worlds colliding, she must decide what she is willing to sacrifice—for her people, for him, and for a future that hangs in the balance.
Read the first seven chapters of this year's most anticipated romantasy!
A must-read for Romantasy lovers
- Gripping
- Spicy
- epic
Heir of Stardust and Secrets, thrusts readers into a realm where the magic is as real as the heartbeats of the characters they come to love. This novel does more than transport you to a fantastical world—it envelops you in it.
The narrative is gripping, the stakes are high, and the emotional payoff is immense—not to mention its spicy scenes are lip-biting worthy.
Characters are deeply complex and their emotional depth resonates powerfully throughout the narrative, having readers turn the pages to chase the end, only to ask when the next book is coming out!
“The truth, Nyleeria, is that I was searching for you.”

Musings with the willow
“I’d always thought of weeping willows as holding a deep sorrow. It was something in the way their branches yielded to gravity. How they turn downward, as opposed to stretching up to meet the world, confident and open for all to see. Perhaps I was in good company then, and the willow could take some of this newfound hollowness away. Or maybe I too, was now destined to weep in perpetuity.”

“But curse the gods for the desire threatening to consume my resolve, my sanity, my ethics.”
How many times had we done this before, in this valley, release washing over us? But as Eithan drew out desire with every touch, my body crying out for him, I sought any thread of restraint that would anchor me to reality—for the primal feeling rushing through my core, readying for him, was about to consume me, and I wouldn’t be able to stop it.

I would like to start off by saying that this story is without a doubt my favorite romantasy book of 2024!✨️ The author’s storytelling is truly beautiful, and made me get a little teary-eyed.😭
From start to finish i was enchanted by Mrs.Hartly’s beautiful fantasy world,and her natural gift for empathy.The characters personalities/emotions were clearly explained,and provided an excellent opportunity for the reader to better understand the motives,and decisions that each character had to eventually come to terms with.

This book is such a great addition to my fantasy book adventure. I just got back into reading this year, after taking a few years off, and wow has it been an absolute journey diving into all these magical worlds again. Heir of Stardust and Secrets is no different in that sense! The author has done a fantastic job on the world building aspect and character development. You are thrown right into the world and instantly fall in love with the main character and don’t worry, there is a good amount of spice in there! The narrative is medium paced as the main character delves into this surreal world and you really get to immerse yourself in her experiences. The dialogue is really well written and it makes you love the interactions with all the other characters. Give this book a try and you’ll love it! Can’t wait for the next one!!

This was book number 2 on my list after slowly getting back into my love of reading, and it was what hooked me right back in. Romantasy, Fae worlds, etc., are brand new to me and this book enthralled me. Chapt. 5 alone had me emotional and in tears – and it barely started. Nyleeria was the breath of level-headed, not angsty fresh air I was struggling with in a previous book, with an incredible story to follow from little self-confidence and love to becoming one hell of a strong woman. The book had so much happening without being overwhelming and has a cast of diverse characters that make you laugh, love, scared, and grind your teeth at unexpected twists.
Considering so much happened in the first book, I am already in restless anticipation for the next part of Nyleeria’s story!

It took little time to fall in love with the young human woman Nyleeria, and did she ever have a story to tell. Her circumstances go from bad to terrible, only to be whisked away and shown the utmost care, love and devotion from a wonderful cast of characters. But with an ancient war between humankind and the Fae kingdoms looming to break out again, Nyleeria is sent into a dangerous game of political intrigue and deception. And where danger lurks, sometimes in the places you least expect it, Nyleeria grapples with her morality while learning about the sources and strength of her own magic.
I cannot wait to continue following her adventures.

Wow! My favourite book of the year. Where to begin. This book was the escapism I needed. The world that CC Hartly has created is beautiful, intriguing, incredibly imaginative and keeps you on your toes. You’ll get pulled in right from the beginning and stay hooked all the way through. I really enjoyed the writing style as it’s very descriptive, satisfying your imagination while still moving the story along at a good pace. Personally I am more of a Fantasy reader than Romantasy, but I could appreciate the romance and spice in Mythic Spark. It was very purposeful and I didn’t feel like it was spicy just for the sake of being spicy. It had meaning, which I find most Romantasy lacks. This is a must-read, especially if you’re interested in the fantasy or Romantasy genre! I won’t speak about the storyline so as not to give anything away – but trust me this is worth the read! The hardest part is waiting for the next one to come out!
