She wants revenge.
He wants her.
After learning of Sin’s dark deceptions, Wren travels to The Feral Vale where she is introduced to the rustic land of the elves. She vows to protect her family at all expense, even if that means keeping the Black Art’s treacherous secret.
When a realm divided draws the unwanted attention of a neighboring king, Wren and the elves must resort to clever schemes to gain leverage in the impending war. Wren and her family are determined to lay low—a challenging feat when the entire kingdom guard is searching for the “white-haired witch.” She longs to forget the betrayal that drove her here, more so, she longs to forget him, but when circumstance thrusts them together, the result is nothing short of incendiary.
As motives come to light, Wren isn’t sure who she can rely on, but one fact becomes startling, and infuriatingly, clear: Wren and Sin must combine forces if any of them has a hope to survive the disconcerting conflict ahead. With past hurts challenging them at every step, the road ahead is punishing.
War is brutal, but nothing is more maiming than furious love.
