What's the Empyrean Series About?

Initially described as "Harry Potter with dragons," the series, while starting with that element, quickly evolves into a more Twilight-esque magical fantasy romance with explicit content.

The narrative centers on Violet Sorrengail, a seemingly delicate young woman compelled by her powerful mother to join a perilous dragon rider academy. Violet's journey involves overcoming personal weaknesses, navigating complex relationships with her mother, a former friend, and a seemingly hostile boy, all while uncovering deeper mysteries surrounding her world and a captivating romance.
