Set in Victorian-era Scotland and filled to the brim with fae, this historical romantasy adventure will sweep you away.

This edition has been revised and expanded, with new spicy adult scenes.

Escape the fae. Save the realm. Make them pay.

Aileana Kameron is on the run in a broken world. The fae realm spit her back out just in time to watch her city burn and the human world fall. Now she's hunted by enemies determined to possess the secrets locked in her mind.

Nowhere is safe.

Her only refuge is with Kiaran MacKay, her lethal fae consort. Together they're thrust into the heart of the human resistance, but trust is scarce. The fae close in, hungry to restore their Courts, even if it means razing the mortal realm to ashes.

But Aileana realizes she's not their only target. Something else has caught their eye, something that could turn the tide of the war.

And to survive, she'll have to outwit them all.
