"A bold girl, a kingdom under attack, magic everywhere-I devoured it in one sitting! This book is one wild ride!" -Tamora Pierce on Stormrise
Nothing is quite as it seems in this thrilling fantasy adventure by Jillian Boehme!
For a hundred years, the once-prosperous kingdom of Perin Faye has suffered under the rule of the greedy and power-hungry Thungrave kings. Maralyth Graylaern, a cacao farmer''s daughter, has no idea her hidden magical power is proof of a secret bloodline and claim to the throne. Alac Thungrave, the king''s second son, has always been uncomfortable with his position as the spare heir-and the dark, stolen magic that comes with ruling.
When Maralyth becomes embroiled in a plot to murder the royal family and seize the throne, a cat-and-mouse chase ensues in an adventure of dark magic, court intrigue, and forbidden love.
