In a city where dangerous emotions are catalogued, collared, and silenced, Lyra has survived by hiding the one thing she cannot control: her empathy. Caelen is the Bureau’s most feared enforcer, a man whose very presence makes crowds tremble. He is sent to find carriers like Lyra, bind them, and erase their power before they can become a threat. But when his hand closes around her wrist, something impossible happens. His fear does not silence her. Her warmth answers it. Drawn together by a forbidden bond neither of them understands, Lyra and Caelen discover that their powers do more than collide. They complete each other. And in a world built to keep people afraid, being truly seen may be the most dangerous magic of all. Dark, sensual, and emotionally charged, Ash and Ember is a romantasy audio series about desire, rebellion, and the kind of love no collar can contain.
