Wren Embervale, alchemist-turned-assassin, finds solace in only one thing: seeking vengeance for the death of her friends.

For one night, I willingly put myself in danger, picking a stranger to lose myself in before I begin my life of servitude to the crown as a member of the King's Guard. But the man I thought was a stranger turns out to be the Blade of the King, Thorn, my new boss.

I survived being thrown into the veil that should've killed me. I managed to live through the even more dangerous trip to the capital.

Eight Fae fight for my hand in marriage. They're willing to kill for it. But if they discover my secret, my future husband might kill me too. The King of Brookmere has decreed his daughter is to marry—which means, despite my protests, he's enacted an archaic tradition, summoning powerful Fae from across the land to compete for my hand in marriage.

Including the arrogant, shadow-wielding Kade Blackthorn.

In the final war for survival, will Thea and Wilder emerge victorious? Or will the shadows consume them at last?
