The House Of The Fallen Goddeses

In a decaying Mediterranean town ruled by a family’s pact with fallen goddesses, a powerless girl raised among them must face the collapse of the magic when an ancient enemy returns—just as she begins to fall for an outsider who threatens the fragile order of her world.

In the 1990s Mediterranean town of Aurora, the Astruc family rules through a fading pact with six fallen lunar goddesses, who grant them a power called the Brightness. Sixteen-year-old Alex Héspero lives with the goddesses. As the daughter of a legendary necromancer, she feels like a failure because she cannot access her inherited magic.

Everything changes when seventeen-year-old Zoe arrives. An outsider tied to the Astrucs by inheritance, Zoe rejects the family’s oppressive rituals. As Alex and Zoe grow close, the town's fragile balance shatters. Someone within the family sabotages the system, summoning a destructive ancient Solar entity that collapses the pact and overpowers the lunar goddesses.

Now, Alex must confront her true nature. She becomes the only one capable of withstanding this catastrophic force to save the goddesses from final extinction. But in Aurora, power demands sacrifice—and falling for the wrong person might cost them their survival.

A dark, gothic YA fantasy where fallen goddesses survive on borrowed power and ancient pacts begin to fail—launching a series about dangerous legacies, buried truths, and girls who refuse to inherit a broken world.
