Waking up with a hangover she expected. Waking up with a hickey she did not. After coming home from another wild party, Eva Roa totally expected the pounding in her head, but she didn't expect the love bite on her neck. She also didn't expect Ryder Finnick to be the one who gave it to her.

Sometimes two souls are bound by a force stronger than love, stronger than death. She is a foundling saved from the sea. Too wild, too roguish, too unusual to fit the stiff life at the castle. While her raven heart holds a key to unparalleled power, she remains hostage to its dark secrets. He is a banished mage and seems merely curious about this odd creature, followed by a fae and a beast of a crow. But when their paths cross more powerful forces take charge of their lives. Gods and demons, humans and mages, forgotten magic and lost lives; to know their secrets and discover her own past Lirr must reach the Isle of Mists.

For as long as anyone could remember, the aristocracy has ruled the nation of Usana, the Queen at its head. But the ball gowns don't impress Cana, a lower class girl barely scraping by trying to support her family. In her eyes, ballrooms and dancing have no place in a world racked with war and suffering. All of that changes when a wizard comes to stay. When he reveals the true nature of Cana's heritage, her world is tipped upside down. Now she must take a stand and prove that she has what it takes, no matter the cost. But is she willing to risk everything to change the foundations of an entire nation?

maybe there are too many questions, ones we don't have answers for but if there's one thing we do know for sure, it's that they'll always love each other, forever, maybe more. ~~~~~~~~ lowercase intended. ©2014 bookwormDS
