Ryiah's world was shattered the night she discovered King Blayne's nefarious plans. Now, she has to betray the one she loves most in order to save the realm from war. Torn between love and duty, Ry finds herself on a perilous mission to help the rebels and convince the kingdom of Pythus not to honor its pact with the corrupt king of Jerar--all the while deceiving the most powerful mage in the realm, the very man sworn to protect the Crown and hunt the rebels at all costs: her husband. She's one step ahead, but sooner or later the curtain will fall. Sooner or later, she'll have to fight.
Let me start out by say, I completely and utterly binge read this book. I'm not kidding when I say this either. I could not put it down for the life of me. Thank goodness for the huge scary storm that passed through, the 70+ mph winds kept me up. So I had a good excuse to stay up and read. This book blew me away. Just when you think all hope is lost, you get a little glimmer of salvation. Only to have it torn away again. But it was so, so good. I am sad to see this story come to an end, but it was so worth the wait. Though I wouldn't mind a few novellas to go along with it. Maybe see everything from Priscilla's point of view and her life. Maybe even a short story for Ella, Derrick and Ian. Since they played such important roles in the series.
