Keeper of Shadows (The Keeper Series—Book Two)

"Action-packed …. Rice's writing is solid and the premise intriguing." --Publishers Weekly (re A Quest of Heroes) "I await each release by this author eagerly and have never been disappointed!" --Book Reviewer (Wish) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ KEEPER OF SHADOWS is the second book in an enthralling new romantasy series by USA Today bestseller Morgan Rice, whose books have over 10,000 five-star ratings. The series begins with KEEPER OF FATE (Book #1). A millennium ago, an ancient library housing all of the world's magic was scattered into a thousand hidden repositories to keep a great evil from seizing it, and a prophecy was born: only the Chosen One would find them. War has come to the realm, and Xander Ashwood must navigate a continent torn apart by conflict. As armies clash and refugees flee, he races to claim repositories before his mysterious rival can reach them first. With Rosalind's cunning and Alessia's noble connections, Xander pushes deeper into danger—but when a repository's trial forces him to choose between power and compassion, he discovers that being the Chosen One means more than just winning the race. Meanwhile, in the frozen North, his counterpart grows stronger. And when Xander feels the pull of the next repository, he knows with chilling certainty: they're finally headed for the same destination. Magic and destiny collide with heart-pounding action and spellbinding romance in this romantasy series that will captivate your heart and imagination. Future books in the series are available!
