In the fourth novel of the bestselling Belador paranormal series, Evalle Kincaid must turn her back on the Beladors to protect those she loves—and the world—from annihilation.To prevent a genocide, Evalle is forced to embrace her destiny … but at what cost? As an Alterant who fights everything from trolls to demons, Evalle has lived as an outcast among the Beladors. But now she can change all that and find answers to her origins. Those answers and a traitor hide within the Medb coven, an enemy poised to destroy the mortal world and all that Evalle holds dear. While her best friends Tzader and Quinn want to help, they have their own conflicts and face unthinkable choices as relationships with the women they love twist in unexpected directions.With time ticking down on a decision that will compel allies to become deadly enemies, Evalle turns to Storm and takes a major step that only complicates matters more when the witch doctor he's been hunting starts stalking Evalle.

Quotes

“Longtime fans of the Belador series will have much to celebrate in the fearless Evalle Kincaid’s fourth outing. Kenyon and Love write with such heart and investment, each scene has an intensity that will quicken the pulse and capture the imagination. Because the layers of this complicated plot only grow and develop, new readers would not be advised to start with this book, but the rewards of this constantly evolving series are great, including the promise of future installments as Evalle’s journey continues.” RT Book Reviews (4 stars)
