A Trial of the Heart

The trials begin. Skylar arrives in the Inner Kingdom, but the danger of the trials is only half the battle she will have to face. The courts of the High Fae are as treacherous as they are mysterious to a foreign outsider. Skylar will have to navigate obstacles in the trials, along with the politics and mind games of the other fae creatures living in the Inner Kingdom. The ever-watchful Daxton never wavers from his promise to protect Skylar with all he is, alongside his cunning brother Castor and new allies of Crimson City. As the trial of the mind approaches, Skylar readies herself to accomplish what no other shifter has yet to achieve. Will she overcome the odds and succeed in the first trial? Will she be able to unlock the secrets of what lies hidden in the labyrinth and continue to the trial of the body? Only her heart can guide her to victory. This is the second installment of the Valdor four-book series. It follows our Spitfire heroine as she begins the deadly trials to save her world. This fantasy romance will appeal to fans of character-driven adventurous romance tales such as A Court of Thorns and Roses, The Serpent and the Wings of Night, and A Ruin of Roses.
