A fierce and beautiful warrior. 

A man of secrets and shadows. 

Only together can they stop the awakening horror. 

Rumors of monsters and dark magic are circulating through the court, but Terrwyn is little concerned. Her superb sword skills are all she needs to protect the princess Aricia—and as chief bodyguard, the princess's safety is Terrwyn's only mission. 

Too late, she realizes her mistake: a stranger cloaked in darkness snatches the princess before Terrwyn can react. 

When a handsome stranger emerges from the shadows to save her life, Terrwyn has little choice but to allow him to accompany her. Zelek, shrouded in secrecy and on a mission of his own, has special skills that Terrwyn needs. 

Together the warrior and the shadow-whisperer forge a plan to rescue the princess, and find themselves plummeting not only headlong into evil, but into the depths of passion and love.
