‘I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough!’ — Alwyn Hamilton
‘Magical, romantic and deeply nostalgic’ — Sarah Underwood
It’s been thirty-seven years since the Republic was destroyed. Now, the five clans and the Kingsland fight for control.
Isadora, daughter of the clans’ leader, risks her life on the battlefield to help injured clan soldiers. But when she stops an attack from Tristan, a Kingsland assassin, his soldiers shoot her with a poisoned arrow. As Isadora lies dying, Tristan does the unimaginable: he offers to save her life using a rare magic.
Yet, in choosing to live, Isadora is unknowingly bound to the mysterious Tristan, through a magical connection that could allow him access to her emotions, her deepest memories, and the very information he needs to destroy the clans.

About the Author
Melissa Poett studied music composition, first telling stories with instruments before switching her medium to words. When not writing, she can probably be found shivering in a hockey arena while she cheers on her kids in their respective sports. She lives in Canada and The Enemy's Daughter is her debut novel for young adults. @MelissawritesYA
