Book 2 of the "Forbidden" Series (Read Forbidden Union first): Aurelia has one goal: to dismantle the cruel laws the elemental kings forged. Laws that have torn countless lovers apart for millennia. She carefully crafts and acts on a plan she believes will force the kings to rewrite the very foundations of their reign. But ancient prophecies are stirring, and the elemental kings are more volatile than ever. To keep their grip on power, they need the cooperation of the King of Ash. Damien, however, has no intention of obeying. Revenge still burns in him hotter than any flame. A flame that the death of the previous King of Ash never extinguished. He would relish in tearing all three kings down, kingdom by kingdom, bone by bone. He is impossible to control, a man of many masks. A man who couldn't care less about consequences. That is, unless someone discovers his one fatal vulnerability. The bond that haunts him... and the one weapon capable of bringing the King of Ash to his knees.

Veloria is a realm divided into four elemental Kingdoms: Sea, Wind, Terra, and Ash. Ancient law forbids romantic relations between different Kingdoms, as any child born with more than one elemental power is seen as a threat to the delicate balance of power. This law, established centuries ago by the rulers of all four Kingdoms, is enforced with ruthless precision. Any child of mixed blood, along with the parents who bore them, is executed. But now, the King of Ash seeks to ignite the world in his fury. With his deadly and forbidden plan, he seeks to claim Veloria for his own, threatening to consume the traditions and freedom of the other elemental kingdoms. To stand against him, the kingdoms send their strongest-those born of perfect lineage, trained from birth to embody their element's purest form. Known as "purebloods", their mission is to stop the King of Ash before his flame consumes all. Yet lurking in the shadows is the King of Ash's most feared assassin, determined to ensure that no one stands in the way of his master's reign.
