LUSH FLAME, SACRED BONE

A novel by Dark Goddess

When a woman stops begging to be chosen and starts listening to her ancestors, the entire universe shifts.

Isalía—a 37-year-old woman with Caribbean and Latina roots—is done performing softness for men who confuse restraint with devotion. She’s no longer waiting to be worshipped. Guided by ancestral whispers, Goetic spirits, and the sacred rage of her bloodline, she learns how to rise—not with vengeance, but with vision.

This isn’t a romance.
It’s a reclamation.

This poetic, spell-laced novel weaves feminine power, ancestral magick, emotional integration, and sacred embodiment into a story of becoming.
Isalía doesn’t find love.
She finds herself.
