Hymn for the Forsaken

Some homes are worth fighting for. Others demand a price.

Generations of Appalachian magic kept Ina Klee's family land protected. Now a ruthless tech company—and a wealthy family hiding dangerous enchantments—threaten everything she's sworn to protect.

Hidden among overgrown fields and old traditions, the land she shares with her grandmother isn't just home—it's where generations of Klee women have crafted supernatural tinctures rooted in ancient power.Determined to stop the massive data center from consuming her family land, Ina finds herself fighting a battle she can't afford to win—until Natalie Cuppy arrives.Beautiful, intelligent, and connected to one of the region's wealthiest families, Natalie offers friendship, support, and a glimpse into a world Ina has never known. Wealth. Stability. Security. Everything she's gone without.But beneath the Cuppy family's generosity lies something far darker. Their power wasn't built on money alone. Enchanted, ruthless, and willing to destroy anyone who stands against them, the Cuppys have been taking what they want for generations—and every favor they offer comes with a price.As pressure closes in and buried secrets rise to the surface, Ina discovers that protecting her home may cost more than losing it. It may cost who she becomes.
