When the world forgets you, what happens when someone finally sees you?

I’m so excited to invite you to join the ARC team for Fate: Cast of Light – Episode One, the gripping first installment in Diamond Ross’s fantasy serial where magic and fate collide in all the most dangerous ways.
Perfect for readers who crave slow-burn tension, enigmatic love interests, and treacherous magical realms, this dark fantasy is ideal for fans of Sarah J. Maas, Leigh Bardugo, and Jennifer L. Armentrout.
Step into Fate:
When Harper is inexplicably thrust into the mysterious world of the Fates, nothing could prepare her for the dangers awaiting her. In this parallel realm connected to her own, Harper is an unwelcome intruder, and the otherworldly forest is determined to challenge her survival at every turn.
Guided by two enigmatic Fates, Elric and Kael, Harper embarks on a perilous journey to find the Crossbridge—the portal that could lead her home. Elric is as dazzling and calculated as the world around him is deadly, wielding his charm like a weapon while keeping his true intentions shrouded. Kael, his dark and brooding counterpart, is relentless and raw, with an intensity that cuts through the chaos.
As dark forces close in and cryptic secrets surface, Harper is drawn deeper into the Fates’ treacherous world. Each step toward the Crossbridge is fraught with danger, tension, and choices that blur the line between ally and enemy. And with Elric and Kael’s fiery rivalry pulling her in different directions, Harper finds herself caught between light and shadow—where trust is fragile, and survival depends on more than courage.

About Diamond Ross
Diamond Ross writes fantasy with a pulse—the kind that simmers before it cuts, where love tangles with danger and no one walks away clean. Her stories lean into obsession, choice, and the messy middle between right and wrong.
She’s the author of Fate: Cast of Light, a character-driven series about power, betrayal, and the tension that builds when you’re falling for someone you probably shouldn’t. Her writing is soaked in atmosphere and emotional weight—less about perfect heroes, more about the ones who break things and still make you root for them.
When she’s not writing, she’s running through cities, rewatching her favorite anime, or writing poems that shouldn’t feel beautiful but do.
If you’re into slow burns, sharp dialogue, and morally messy characters you’ll argue with in your head… you’ve found the right author.

Be among the first to fall into this rich, otherworldly fantasy and meet the two Fates who might just ruin everything.
