When Shadows Bleed: Book 1 of The Star-Marked Saga

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

Power built her empire. A secret marked her soul.

Starr Knight is the architect of a global empire, ruled by ruthless precision and a cold heart. In her world of glass towers and boardroom wars, emotion is a liability and control is everything. But she cannot explain the crescent-shaped mark on her wrist—a cold, pulsing mystery she has carried since birth.

When her parents vanish in a mysterious plane disappearance, Starr buries her grief beneath ambition. Yet, as her influence grows, reality begins to fracture. Systems collapse at her command. Her words carry a weight they shouldn’t. The shadows are no longer empty, and the mark is awakening.

Starr soon discovers that her rise to the top was never by chance. As ancient forces stir and seductive secrets emerge, she must face a devastating truth: control was always an illusion, and she is being shaped into something far more dangerous than a CEO.

When Shadows Bleed is a dark paranormal romance where corporate ambition meets supernatural menace—and the cost of power may be the soul itself.
