I am the Queen of the Werewolf Territory, a place that has always been my sanctuary, and yet I must leave my people if I am to save them. Our world is falling apart, and I must take the task my father set to me, and heal the Veil that protects us all. A deadly journey lies ahead of me, and no one can know that I am leaving-too many would steal the crown with me gone. With a small, secret contingent I go across the water to the human realm, a land I've never set foot on to find the gemstone that is the key to our salvation.If only that were my single crux. My heart is torn between the man I am hunting down, a man who stole my heart along with a jewel he had no right to take, and the man who stands at my side.One human with abilities he should not have. One vampire with a mouth that sets me on fire and leaves my body aching for more. Neither should be where I set my heart as a queen. And yet...I am drawn to them both.I must keep my eyes on the literal prize...and I must not let my heart lead.
