In a world divided into three races since ancient times, there have been three kingdoms. The first kingdom is the kingdom of the gods and sits in the heavens ruling above the other two. The second is called Amaryllis and filled with the prosperous, but greedy Lekki, a humanoid race that relies much on machinery and the gods above to protect them, since their own bodies are weak. The final kingdom, called only the Wild Woods, is filled with dark and murderous creatures known as the Mutare. Honey, a Lekki girl, lives on the border between these three words, and often time finds herself staring into the depths of the Wild Woods. Her whole life she'd been taught that the woods was a dark and dangerous place, where only the night beasts could survive. But, with one simple deal to save her brother's life, Honey finds herself in the depths of these very woods with two very strange boys, searching for something they call the Rose Book.

War has come to the four realms, and while the mortals of the Mundane remain unaware of the risk to their freedom, the vampire race knows they must fight back before the wolves seal off Blutholme forever and leave them to starve. But they can't do it alone. To defend their realm, they need the help of the elahdril, the elven people of Galahidras. There's only one problem; an usurper queen still sits on the elahdril throne. Queen Heliana might have been elected to ascend to the throne when the last elahdrilas prince was murdered, but she is happy to let the wolves attack her own borders, as long as she is safe within the halls of Karycadra. She won't help vampires, not while she sees them as unwholesome, dead things, nor does she care that the Mundane will eventually be enslaved. Thankfully, she is not the last hope for the realms. Nekyra of Rhynlas had been three when her father, Prince Fardir died and she was whisked away to live in exile, hiding behind a human face. After the events of book one, she is finally ready to go home, to return to the realm of her birth and learn the ways of her people. She's ready to take back her throne, but to do that, she must persuade Heliana that she doesn't want the throne at all. She needs to survive, without being executed as a traitor, until she figures out how best to remove Heliana and bring to heel a people who see her as the breaker of traditions. To do that, she must wear her human face again, and hold her tongue when she would declare Heliana's time over. But she can't wait too long to take back her crown, not while Ric, the vampire who holds her heart, is at risk in Blutholme. It is time to become the queen she was born to be.

When she receives the invitation, Rebecca Adams doesn't know whether she actually wants to go to her school reunion. A lot has changed since she last set foot in that cringeworthy place. Her greasy skin has long since gone, her hair is far less frizzy these days, her crooked teeth are now nicely straightened, and her glasses have been replaced with contacts-yes, Rebecca has indeed changed. She is no longer the skinny and quiet little spectacled geek who always had her head deeply inside of a book; now, she is a successful and hardworking businesswoman. Quite a few of her former classmates have also gone on to become successful and hardworking, but none more so than Mitch Heston himself - now a very famous and in-demand actor; a criminally gorgeous, very famous and in-demand actor.... who is rumoured to also be attending said school reunion. As a teenager, Mitch was much the same as he is now - well known and insanely popular. Back then, Rebecca was just another one of the shy girls who Mitch Heston and his friends used to enjoy teasing and making immature fun of. Which is why Rebecca feels hesitant about going. Part of her wants to leave the memories of school well and truly behind her. While another part of her wants to show them all the woman that she so proudly has now become. Besides, it's probably just a wildly exaggerated rumour that Mitch Heston will even be there. Or maybe, a very well orchestrated publicity stunt? I mean really, why would the incredibly famous Mitch Heston, want to be at his own school reunion? Seriously, the A list him, wouldn't really attend this thing? ...... would he?
