Embrace the darkness or die resisting…

Durvla Garrick finds little solace in safety of the rebellious Verge. The princess of Erleya is declared dead by an aggressive new Sovereign whose actions threaten to plunge the kingdom into war. When a Purist arrives at the Verge, speaking of the mythical land, Siad Nahar, Durvla and her companions are thrust into more danger than ever before.

Gwyneth Pendry barely escaped death after attempting to cleave her forbidden earth magic from her soul. She awoke with her magic still intact, and strange visions plaguing her. She’s meant for more, but the voices of the gods and the fury of her controlling husband have her paralyzed with fear.

Barely conscious and burnt out, ex-princess Carys Meredyth fa Rhodri finds herself in the Kingdom of Uldarvik. Though their betrothal is strictly political, Odgar is determined to find a place in her battered heart. But if Carys doesn’t find a way to control her magical outbursts and the Enchantress waiting in the recesses of her mind, all could succumb to her flames.

As Durvla desperately tries to connect with Carys through dreamscapes, she finds herself instead in the dreams of a stranger. All signs point to Siad Nahar for the balance that Erleya—and Carys—needs. But balance requires sacrifice, and sacrifice may unleash chaos.
