"From snow and death, the Phoenix will rise."

Ashelynn Grimmore is a nobody from nowhere, just trying to piece herself back together after her father's sudden death. She spends her days in the northern woods and her nights alone, unaware of the big plans fate has for her. 
Until she meets Grey, and from the moment they collide, her life is irreversibly changed. 
Grey brings grim news. Ashe is in grave danger, hunted by creatures few have ever seen, at the command of a being only spoken of in whispers. Grey is there to protect her, whatever it takes, whatever the cost. There is more at stake than just her life; they're pawns in a game of cosmic proportions, and the players have BIG plans. Together, the unlikely pair embark on a dangerous journey, gathering a band of strange companions along the way. Their quest? To save their universe, and fulfill the prophecy inscribed in stone centuries ago.

"At her twentieth year she will understand; the world's rise or fall is by her own hand."

-"She'll ruin you! She'll bring you to your knees." His answer was a prayer, murmured above me. "Even better."- ~A tale of oaths, and the people who break them~ Cassia Aurelius is a thief, an orphan, and a girl who made a terrible mistake... she ate Fae food. Now she's trapped in a realm of beautiful half-truths disguised as mercy, where the price of survival is combat. Forced into deadly trials before a crowd of merciless Fae, Cassia fights to keep her life, unaware that the game was never meant for her to win. When a dashing Fae Lord steps in to save the hapless human girl, she sees no way to live long enough to find her way home, except his unwanted offer of marriage. This Lord had his own reasons for this chivalry, however. She was not to be a bride, but a key. Hunted, terrified, and betrayed, Cassia finds an unlikely ally in the court of her betrothed. One with secrets that echo her own... one who leads her to a reclusive and broken Fae Lord who sees the darkness she hides. As war brews and ancient magic stirs, love becomes a weapon. Cassia must decide who to trust before she loses more than her home and freedom. In the Fae realm, looks can be deceiving. And after a life of hot and cold, Cassia isn't certain she can trust a "just right".
