Her storm has broken free. He is the only one who can contain it.
River Waterborn is cursed. She has always known it, but her fears are confirmed when she loses control of her storm again. She is a bringer of death. Even though she tried to run from fate, it caught up with her.
And now, River is broken. Deeply. Permanently. Or so she thinks.
Nikhail Galebringer has spent years denying his draw to River, thinking she would be better off without him. She's his best friend's sister, after all.
But when River's storm hits, Nikhail drops everything to go to her side. She needs him, and he won't let anything keep them apart any longer.
River is wading through darkness, lost in her grief, but Nikhail vows to remain by her side no matter what. After all, she deserves the stars, and he will do whatever it takes to ensure she sees them once more.
A Tempest of Wind and Fate is the second book in the next duology in The Choosing Chronicles. This duology should be read after A Game of Love and Betrayal, and A Heart of Desire and Deceit.
There will be three duologies in total.
The series
In a world where love is as unpredictable as the magic that courses through its veins, The Choosing Chronicles offers a dark and thrilling journey through power, deception, and desire. At the heart of this series is Brynleigh, a vampire haunted by a past marked by pain and loss. Her thirst for vengeance drives her into the dangerous world of The Choosing, a mysterious and high-stakes competition where contestants are blindfolded to choose their partner—and never know exactly who they will end up with.
Read full series description
Brynleigh’s mission is clear: infiltrate the Choosing, make Ryker Waterborn fall in love with her, and exact her revenge on the day they marry. But nothing goes according to plan. As she gets closer to Ryker, the lines between love and hate blur, and emotions become as dangerous as the political games they both play. Ryker isn’t just the son of a powerful fae representative—he’s a pawn in a larger game, one that neither of them is truly prepared for.
The Choosing itself is more than just a backdrop. It’s a game of secrets, where alliances shift like the winds, and betrayal is as much a part of the process as the promises of love. Each choice Brynleigh makes pulls her deeper into a web of manipulation, where she’s forced to question who the real enemies are—and whether her thirst for revenge is clouding her judgment.
As The Choosing Chronicles unfolds, themes of identity, trust, and redemption resonate throughout the pages. It’s a story that isn’t just about vengeance, but about discovering the true cost of love—and whether it’s worth the price.
With its lush world-building, complex characters, and unpredictable twists, this series is perfect for fans of dark fantasy, slow-burn romance, and stories where every choice could be the difference between salvation or damnation. Whether you’re drawn to tales of forbidden love or the allure of mysterious supernatural realms, The Choosing Chronicles pulls you into a world where nothing is ever as it seems, and the heart is as dangerous as the magic that controls it.
