In a world darkened by deceit, the truth is a light that won't be dimmed. They call him the Bloodthirsty Prince. His reign of terror has left a trail of blood across this continent, a trail that intertwines with her own past. To save her brother's life, she agreed to another bargain with the fae prince. Now, forced to travel to the fae lands and spend every waking moment with the man who betrayed her, she must work with former enemies, manipulate allies, and prepare for the coming war. Because there are creatures far more monstrous than the fae. And some of them masquerade as men.
