Description
A magical action-adventure romantasy filled with banter, light humor, and emotion.
Escala's Wish, the debut fantasy romance novel by David James, launches the Tales from Valla series—a sweeping blend of fey folklore, forbidden love, sharp banter, and high-stakes adventure.
In the mystical world of Valla, magic breathes through every shadow, secrets coil beneath courtly charm, and ancient forces stir as destiny closes its fist around a mortal girl caught between two worlds. Escala’s journey is filled with heart-pounding battles, moments of warmth and wit, and a romance strained by truth, loyalty, and impossible choices. Themes of redemption, sacrifice, and longing anchor this tale where passion and danger are inseparable.
Perfect for adult and older teen readers, Escala’s Wish will captivate fans of romantasy, fae intrigue, slow-burn tension, and high-magic adventures. Ideal for readers of A Court of Thorns and Roses, The Cruel Prince, and Fourth Wing.
Step into Valla—where every wish comes with a price.
It started with a kiss.
Escala Winter—a mischievous pixie from the Court of Dreams—only wanted to understand love.
But one impulsive act awakens a long-buried grudge, forges a treacherous alliance, and unleashes a storm of vengeance that threatens to consume both mortal and Fey realms.
Banished from her enchanted home, Escala is thrust into a world of danger and deception—and burdened with an impossible quest that may be her only chance to make things right.
She’s hunted by a cruel rival, haunted by the loss of her best friend, and entangled in a sinister revenge plot older—and darker—than she could ever imagine.
In the mortal world, she’s given aid by a man who agrees—reluctantly and only at a friend’s urging—to help her get her bearings. He intends to offer nothing more than brief assistance, yet the more he sees of her struggle and the impossible burden she carries, the more he’s drawn in. His reluctant duty becomes genuine commitment… and then something far more dangerous. For a mortal to care for a pixie is to pull at the delicate threads of the True Cycle itself—and Escala knows that returning those feelings could damage the realms even further.
Now, torn between the mortal who stands by her side and the fey world she shattered, Escala must confront a past she never knew… and an evil she accidentally unleashed—one that could destroy her family, the fey realm, and the entire material plane.
Escala’s Wish is a sweeping coming-of-age tale about magic, mischief, forbidden longing, and the dangerous price of curiosity. Escala never meant to cause the end of everything—but can she stop it before it’s too late?
