The Spiral of the Remembered Flame

In a world where emotion is forbidden and memory is collapsing, a single spark threatens to reignite everything that was meant to be erased.

The Resonant Heirs, The Spark That Shouldn’t Exist begins The Spiral of the Remembered Flame, in a sweeping 12-book romantic sci-fi fantasy saga blending sacred futurism, mythic rebellion, and lyrical intimacy. It is the story of Amara Kellan, a quiet empath in a society that criminalizes feeling and punishes remembrance. She lives within the sterile walls of Vestalis, a city governed by the Doctrine of Purity—where memories are cleansed, relics are outlawed, and truth is rewritten.

Amara was taught to suppress her gift. But when fractured dreams begin breaking through her carefully engineered silence, she’s drawn to a relic site deep beneath the city—and to Lucan, a mysterious enforcer designed to destroy everything she carries within.

Lucan is synthetic. Loyal. Blank by design. But when he crosses paths with Amara, something awakens in him that shouldn’t exist: resonance. A frequency of recognition. A shared pulse. As the virus known as the Null Harmonic spreads, unraveling time and memory itself, their forbidden connection sets off a chain of revelations that threatens to collapse the system from within.

Together, they uncover the myth of the Breathwoven—an ancient lineage of memory-carriers who believed remembering was a sacred act. Now hunted by the regime and fractured by what they’ve seen, Amara and Lucan must decide whether to disappear—or become the echo that brings the Spiral back to life.

Told in poetic prose, cinematic pacing, and deeply emotional resonance, The Spark That Shouldn’t Exist is perfect for listeners of This Is How You Lose the Time War, The Inheritance Trilogy, and Arrival. It’s not just a love story. It’s a myth awakening inside a broken machine. A sacred resistance hiding in the quietest spark.

You don’t need to remember everything. You just have to feel what the world tried to forget.
