Song of the Fading Grove Book One

I came to the woods looking for a reset. Instead, I found satyrs, sacred trees, and a goddess with terrible timing.

I’m Crystal Everhart—failed conservatory hopeful, professional overthinker, and owner of a violin that apparently opens doors to worlds I was never supposed to see. In the grove, my music can wake flowers, soothe poison, and make even the most impossible magic lean closer. Unfortunately, it also seems to make Jerome—grumpy satyr, reluctant leader, and the most distracting man in the forest—look at me like I’m either a miracle or a disaster.

The deeper I get into the grove’s secrets, the clearer it becomes that my grandmother left me more than a cabin and a journal. She left me a choice. Stay, and maybe help save a dying world. Leave, and take the easy road back to the life I already know is broken.

Only one problem: the forest doesn’t seem willing to let me go.
