The Griffinwing Refuge

One wounded griffin found a sanctuary. Now an entire colony needs one. Wren Ashcombe has begun rebuilding her life beside Cormac Vane at the Grumbleback Sanctuary. But an injured griffin from High Crag brings evidence of a larger danger: a migrating colony is being poisoned by skyglass contamination. Saving one creature was difficult. Protecting many will mean confronting the Slateworks, navigating Guild assessors, and persuading a cautious village that sanctuary must become something larger than one refuge. As Wren and Cormac’s gentle partnership deepens, Bramble and the sanctuary’s growing family discover that compassion can build a community—but protecting it may demand more than kindness. A warm adult cozy fantasy with meaningful stakes Griffins, magical healing, and creature rescue Found family growing into a refuge network A gentle mature romance rooted in trust Return to Thistlewick Hollow, where making room for one more may change the whole valley. Book 2 of Thistlewick Hollow; best read after The Grumbleback Sanctuary.
