Description
The second book in USA Today and New York Times bestselling author C. L. Wilson's hugely popular, stunning, epic romantasy series about Ellysetta, the girl who would be queen; the Fey King Rain Tairen Soul; and their eternal battle for true love in the mystical Fading Lands.
She feared the dark visions and the magic within her.
And she dreamed of the miraculous love that could save her.
Like an enchanted fairy tale prince he stepped from the sky to claim her-the Fey King, her destiny, her one and true love.
But behind the mesmerizing beauty of Rain's violet eyes Ellysetta saw the passionate hunger of the beast . . . and a sorrow, deep and ancient, that she alone could heal. Only for him would she embrace the frightening power that dwells within her. Only with him at her side could she confront the shadows that haunt her soul. For an epic battle looms on the horizon-and only united can they hope to turn back the armies of the darkness.
