Second chances are not given to everyone but to those who deserve it.
Aarya is given a chance to let go of her past but the pain of all she has lost gets in the way of her happiness. All she desires is vengeance for the souls of her family that was taken away by her mate but what she doesn't know is that she was just a pawn in a game spawn by a woman who resents her own child and a man who will go to any lengths to destroy his brother.
On the way to vengeance, Aarya is given a chance to find her roots once more as she meets people who share her gifts and those who differ.
Will vengeance be the only thing she attains or will she gain more than she thinks possible?
