Decades ago, the Council overthrew the Royal Dania Family and burned their witches. Now living in secret Covens, the witches work with the resistance group the Underground to fight back against the Council’s tyranny and return home.

When 30-year-old scientist Aoifé Wren is kidnapped by the Underground and learns she’s a witch, she is faced with just how much she has to make up for. Aoifé learns how to harness her power while experiencing betrayal, disappointment, and a terrifying love for a man who belongs to someone else. As she uncovers the strength to make a dangerous decision and step away from the safety of following, Aoifé finds her place in a world of gods and monsters.

Built on Celtic mythology and lore, Born of Moonlight is the first in a spicy, immersive fantasy series set in an atmospheric, queer normative world.
