As the younger brother to the King of Angels, Stefen Von Emmerich had spent his life resenting his royal obligations and doing the exact opposite of what was expected of him. However, all that 'couldn't-give-a-damn' attitude was hurled right out of his well-guarded window the day he had the misfortune of being killed...
After being turned into a Vampire, Stefen finds more than his mere existence to be altered. Now a Fallen, a hybrid with his maker's famed Dragon blood coursing through his veins, Stefen must rediscover himself and his newly awakening powers.
When he is sent on a mission back to Hell, the place of his death, he discovers much more than what he bargained for. A child was left behind as a result of the battle that forever changed him. A victim of the war between the realms. Another hybrid, like him.
Compelled by reasons beyond his own understanding, Stefen strikes a deal to help the innocent child. As she grows into a beautiful young woman, the more intertwined their two lives become and the more perilous their unique paths grow. It's not long before an old Oracle's words from years ago begin to ring true..."Fate holds the cards. Time reveals the hand."
Forged of Fire Review
Claire's Review ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Wow, what a fab story! I have never read anything of Stacey Von Haegert's before but I was not disappointed.
I am a big fan of paranormal fiction, but at the same time I am very picky of what I read and if the beginning of the book doesn't pull me in I tend to put it down and move on. This book I could not put down! The writing style was fantastic and flowed really well, and the story was well thought out and pulled you in. There is so much going on in this book though that I think I will need to fit in a re-read at some point so I can take my time and take it all in more, as I truely speed read this as I couldn't put it down!
Forged by Fate Review
Claire's Review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This book follows straight on from book 1 Forged of Fire, and I'm so glad I got to read both books back to back. Just like the first installment, I could not put the book down!
Again like the first book, it was action packed and easy to read where you cannot put it down! The writing style continues to flow and bring the story to life. A fantastic series that needs to be read and these reviews are so hard to put into words without adding any spoilers! If you are a fan of paranormal books then I cannot recommend these enough!

BOOK #1
Ash LaGoryen was the second son, born of nobility into the Ushum bloodline-House of the Dragon in the year 776. History claims in every generation a child of royal blood is born to the four elemental houses possessing “The gift”- an ability to bend their chosen element. Ash was this child and fire was his gift. But…Possessing such a skill was a dangerous thing for the young boy of only seven summers.
Present day
Ash has spent twelve hundred years staying under the radar of the monster that ransacked his homelands as a boy and later, after years of torture, turned him into the thing he hated the most. A Vampire. The polished gentleman that stands before Ash in the mirror now, conducts his business during the daylight hours and enjoys his lush, reclusive life as one of the world’s wealthiest empire moguls.
Vastly different from the young immortal that escaped the pits of Hell all those years ago, Ash has zero interest of returning to the station of his royal birth. But, when an ancient prophecy comes to light he finds himself dragged right back into the world of his ancestral bloodline. When the foretold “Chosen one”, with the power to unite the realms, turns out to be a beautiful young mortal, Ash is faced with a whole new set of challenges as an impending war looms around them. He will have to weigh his choices carefully as the demons of his past rise up to threaten his future.
