The line between triumph and tragedy is as fragile as a twist of faete. Ryanne's quest to unearth the elusive spark of creation within Titus that holds the fae's salvation isn't going exactly as planned. After all Ryanne wasn't supposed to fall for the pirate. Her fae mentors warned her she could lose her humanity if she gets too close to the bradaís, eternal foes of the fae. But how do they expect her to complete her mission without getting too involved? It would be so much easier if Titus didn't make her feel safe . . . and excited. Titus seeks solace in Ryanne's arms, the one person who can soothe his darkness within. Haunted by his past, he is determined to remain hidden, away from the relentless fae and the ruthless bradaís alike. Confronting either could spell disaster for the fragile peace he's found with Ryanne. Ryanne finds herself ensnared in a deadly game of fae and bradaís. The conflict threatens to crush her spirit and twist her fate with a darkness that is beyond anything she's encountered before. Can she conquer her fears and stand against the most powerful of the bradaís while still protecting her beloved fae? After all, she is no longer caílin-a child to the fae. Yet, it seems she may no longer be entirely human either.
