After her mother's suicide, Scarlett's grief consumes her. When a beautiful, otherworldly stranger offers her a release from her pain, it's too tempting an opportunity to resist. She's lured into Faerie and sucked into a royal battle as two fae brothers prepare for the Battle of Heirs where the winner earns the right to the throne. Human emotion fuels fae power and Scarlett's is the most potent Cade has ever tasted. He's certain she is the key to defeating his brother Raith. But Raith has surprises of his own, and Scarlett fits perfectly into his devious plan.

Scarlett returns to the mortal realm different than before. She's mended her relationship with her sister, but now has new secrets she must keep. After taking the pill Kaelem, the Unseelie King, had given her at the Summer Court, the magic in Scarlett grows, and she's losing control of her power. When Kaelem offers Scarlett his help, she has no choice but to accept before she hurts someone she loves. Scarlett must trust him to teach her to master her new gifts, but his intentions aren't pure and Scarlett is pulled even further into the fae world.

Since absorbing the power of the Life Tree, everything has changed. Scarlett is queen of a realm that until a few weeks ago she didn't even know existed and has more magic than she ever thought possible. But she worries it still isn't enough to protect those she cares about or to find a way to bring Raith, who had sacrificed himself to save his mother, back. With a looming war against a new enemy no one knows much about, Scarlett and Kaelem must find as many allies as they can.

After returning from the Winter Court, Scarlett and her sister, Ashleigh, are living at the Unseelie Court under its king, Kaelem's, protection. Scarlett's only desire is to keep her sister safe, but Ashleigh isn't happy to be trapped away from her mortal life. Scarlett feels more fae and less human every day. Her emotions run high and resisting the temptations of her new life are harder than ever. When the Fates share a prophecy about powerful magic up for the taking, Scarlett hopes it's the answer she's been looking for. But she isn't the only one the Fates have told.

On December 7, 1941—"a date which will live in infamy"—the Japanese navy launched an attack on the American military bases at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. The next day, President Franklin Roosevelt declared war on Japan, and the US Army officially entered the Second World War. Three years later, on December 18, 1944, President Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066, which enabled the Secretary of War to enforce a mass deportation of more than 100,000 Americans to what government officials themselves called "concentration camps." None of these citizens had been accused of a real crime.
