Ten years ago the Produrai escaped the clutches of the never ending war of Sanctoria, their home world, to begin life anew on Terra. While everyone around Lyla is sticking to the old ways, Lyla is eager to break free of tradition and forge her own path.

Filled with magic and shifting alliances, Forbidden: Book One of the Sanctorian Series contains romance, revenge, and tragedy that spans across two worlds.
