About this book

Vasalie Moran was once a dancer in King Illian's court until he framed her for murder. After surviving two years in the dungeons, the king offers her a deal: become his spy at the six-week royal Gathering and he will grant her freedom. As Illian's orders become increasingly bloody and dangerous, forcing Vasalie to harm and betray those around her, she discovers that the king may be aligned with an even greater threat—one closer to home. With her world threatened, Vasalie seeks help from Illian's brother and greatest adversary, the King of the East. Caught between the brothers' escalating rivalry, Vasalie uncovers horrifying truths about her past. She must decide who to trust, who to fight for, and how much of her soul she is willing to sacrifice to survive. This fantasy romance explores themes of freedom, betrayal, and the cost of survival.
