New York Times bestselling author Sophie Jordan returns to the high-stakes, sweeping world of dragons, romance, and drama first evoked in her bestselling young adult Firelight series, in a brand-new epic adult romantasy series.

Dragons are extinct.

Witches are outcast.

Magic is dying.

But human lust for power is immortal.

Dragon fire no longer blisters the skies over Penterra, but inside the lavish palace, life is still perilous.

especially for Tamsyn.

Raised in the glittering court alongside the princesses, its her duty to be punished for their misdeeds.

Treated as part of the royal family but also as the lowliest servant, Tamsyn fits nowhere.

Her only friend is Stig, Captain of the Guard.

though sometimes she thinks he wants more than friendship.

When Fell, the Beast of the Borderlands, descends on her home, Tamsyns world becomes even more dangerous.

To save the pampered princesses from a fate worse than death, she is commanded to don a veil and marry the brutal warrior.

She agrees to the deception even though it means leaving Stig, and the only life shes ever known, behind.

The wedding night begins with unexpected passion--and ends in near violence when her trickery is exposed.

Rather than start a war, Fell accepts Tamsyn as his bride.

but can he accept the dark secrets she harbors--secrets buried so deep even she doesnt know they exist? For Tamsyn is more than a royal whipping girl, more than the false wife of a man who now sees her as his enemy.

And when those secrets emerge, they will ignite a flame bright enough to burn the entire kingdom to the bone.

Magic is not dead.

it is only sleeping.

And it will take one ordinary girl with an extraordinary destiny to awaken it.
