The Sinkhole - Morgan P.J. Myles

The Sinkhole marks the launch of the first book in a new series from Morgan P.J. Myles, blending immersive worldbuilding, enemies-to-lovers romance, and piercing emotional depth with themes of grief, found friendship, ruthless academia, and the forgotten magic that lives inside us all.

Getting to the Sinkhole is only the beginning. Surviving it, with smoke seeping into every corner, is something else entirely.

Two years after her younger sister's death in Emberfall, twenty-eight-year-old Evelina is still drowning in grief when she's warped into Yasu, a world of beauty and danger. Forests breathe. Skies feel alive. And beneath it all, something lethal is stirring.

At the Sinkhole Academy, the warped are trained to endure ruthless smoke wars and awaken world-altering frequencies. Community is your anchor. Control is everything. Failure is not forgiven.

Evelina was never meant for this place. Her body betrays her for two weeks each month. Pain slows her down. But her empathy gives her an edge, and her rare frequency makes her impossible to ignore, especially to Drayven Vale, the volatile man whose presence is as unsettling as it is unavoidable.

As Yasu edges toward collapse, Evelina's search for answers pulls her into the realm's darkest secrets and forces her to confront her own. If she cannot master herself, she will never uncover what happened to her sister, and the smoke will consume Yasu and everyone she loves.
