Treated as a pawn, can she prove her power?

For years, the quick-witted Lady Ysabelle Benzel has been forced to advance the ambitions of her wicked stepfather, first as a singer for the court and later in pursuing a marriage alliance. Ysa thought she'd escaped him at last by hiding among the Khorrum, the warriors of the wildwood, who have become her dearest friends.

Kullan Asanji is a powerful Khorrum healer, yet he struggles to heal his own wounds. If only he could punish the high-ranking man who gave him the scars he hides behind a mask. Kullan had thought kidnapping the man's stepdaughter would force a confrontation. Yet he quickly realizes that Ysa is no pawn. She has a growing power that might even heal his heart, a heart that is more hers every day.

As Ysa's stepfather allies himself with their enemies, he puts her friends and Kullan's people in danger. Ysa must learn to master her power and turn it for a purpose she never imagined. Together, she and Kullan might be the only ones who can prove that true love is strong enough to conquer the rising darkness.

If you like closed door, swoon-worthy fantasy romance—featuring intelligent, determined heroines and untameable, honorable heroes; dual points of view (hers and his); and a happily-ever-after with ongoing world conflict—in a land designed to sweep you away, grab this story perfect for fans of Kenley Davidson, K.M. Shea, JA Andrews, and Tara Grayce.
