Silivia may have reclaimed her father's crown, but her journey is far from over. The Blood Clan's influence is spreading like a disease throughout Fenriel, and an ancient prophecy is on the verge of coming to pass. She needs to rally the other Fae kingdoms if they are to make it out of this war alive. But with a sister still determined to kill her, a kingdom fighting her title as queen, and a mate hiding his inner demons from her, the Phoenix Queen is about to face her biggest challenge yet. And unlike the others, she may not be standing when the dust settles.
But Silivia isn't the only one feeling the pressure. Dalacia must come to terms with what she's done and decide who truly holds her loyalty. Barak is reliving memories he'd rather forget in hopes of convincing the fire princess to break free of the clan's influence. And Ghost is haunted by a dark voice in the shadows encouraging him to destroy that which he loves most.
With adversaries on all sides, and secrets that, if revealed, could bring them all to their knees, they'll have to decide once and for all whether they will yield and bow...or stand against the Bringer of Blood and Tears.
Will the bond of snow and shadows be enough to wash the blight from the land, or will Fenriel fall to the Blood King?
