Quinna has only ever known luxury. Her father, the overbearing - and terribly rich - King Cyrus of Khore possesses an unspeakable power, for which he once had to make a staggering sacrifice.

Now that Quinna and her twin brother Vincent have been forced to undergo life-altering rituals of their own, they find themselves responsible for their father's missteps. But danger lurks around every corner, and with once-mythical power slowly making its way into circulation, nothing is as it seems.

Thomas, ordinary villager of a quaint border town, is perfectly content with his life. With a blooming romance underway, he believes he has everything he wants. But when unexpected variables are thrown in his path, he is forced to reconsider his beliefs and choose between two things he's always had: love and safety.

In a world where nothing is without cost, a malicious heart is the most expensive ware of all.
