King of Flames

King of Flames is the first book in the Mask of Under series and Kat Kingsley's first professionally published book. It features a human woman named Lydia, who wakes up one day with a mysterious tattoo on her wrist. She has no idea where it came from and she can't remove it. It turns out the tattoo marks her as chosen to be taken to a parallel world called Under to be made into one of its citizens.

From the Amazon Page:

''Everything about my life has been pretty normal working as a forensic autopsy technician. Until the day I woke up with a mysterious symbol tattooed on my arm.''

''Suddenly normal no longer existed. The barrier between Earth and a world called Under, dissolved...''

''Now I’m trapped with dozens of other people. Held prisoner by the creators of myths and legends, where the realm is ruled by two masked kings who want to turn us into creatures like them.''

''But even though I didn’t choose to be here, this new world manages to pull me deeper, affecting me differently than other humans. Unfortunately King Edu, also known as the King of Flames, notices this and I’m now considered a threat.''

''If I want to survive King Edu and the dangers of Under, I need to escape. The only problem is, there’s another masked king who seems to have an interest in me. Aon, the King of Shadows, wants me here in this world, and he wants me alive.''

I just need to figure out why.
