Blush Born

Everyone stares at Jethran Frye, but no one truly sees him. Born with a pink blush on his cheeks, eyes, hands, and hair, he's labeled a Flaw. When his body erupts with new colors that stain the world, he becomes a fugitive accused of Malicious Vibrancy and Public Emoting. Crimes worthy of death.

In the wilderness, Jethran discovers that lullabies are an ancient magic and varii tales carry historical truth. He meets Fable, a silver-skinned Silvarii carrying Wing FADES, a malady contracted through magical intimacy. Jethran names Fable his Chosen Water, a bond closer than blood. Together, they create Spectrasy, an ultimate power of totality channeled through emotional intelligence and radical vulnerability.

Jethran must learn to navigate his new emotions and channel his new power, as he restores the world with color and fights to free his kingdom through song.

Blush Born is a direct translation of the memoir Shards of Hope, told through a fairy tale lens. This story presents a strange world where emotions become physics and color is a tangible force. Queer defiance is baked into this epic entry point to the Shards of Color Trilogy.

All three books are available now on Readerful and Blush Born will be available on Amazon August 31st.
