CAN THEY REUNITE TO SAVE EVERYTHING THEY KNOW?
After a staggering betrayal that felled her husband and captured his throne, Queen Everys retreated to the Cold Light Forest. She thought she'd be able to regroup and face her enemies--the invading Dalark Imperium and now King Brencis, who stole her husband's crown. But the return of an ancient evil reveals what's truly at stake. Everys is determined to overcome these challenges for both her kingdom and her Siporan people. But alongside these threats, the temptations of her power have never been so strong, and her grief and fear are suffocating after the loss of her husband.
Except Narius is still alive, hidden within the Dalark Imperium. His rescuers want his help with an audacious plan, one that could bring about peace between the Imperium and Narius's Dynasty. But doing so would mean he can't have the one thing he wants: Everys, safe in his arms.
Long-held secrets, old animosities, and difficult realizations threaten to reshape everything they know. If they want to stop their enemies, they'll have to risk everything. To whatever end, between the power of Everys's magic and Narius's faithful determination, the Dynasty will never be the same.
