Faye Winters always knew who she was. She would go to college and get her degree so she could work with plants, her one true love. But when a strange man who speaks with antiquated words shows up on Faye Winters' doorstep claiming she must return to the world of faeries, suddenly her plans are thrown off the rails. She soon learns all that he says is true, and she has no choice but to follow him to the world in the clouds that she's supposedly from: Ethereal. Soon, she learns just how much her guardian, Uri, has hidden from her. She is the daughter of the tsar and tsarina of the Court of Vines, and her name is actually Faelin Wisterfell. Just when she thinks things can't get any worse, Faelin discovers the hard way that some faeries don't want her there. Especially Locksley, the son of the high tsar, whose excessive partying and cruel words create the most toxic mixture. Some say if you call him by his old nickname Lark, he'll blind you. Some say he's a failure in comparison to his younger brother, who has now risen to be the heir to the throne. Some say this has made him bitter. All Faelin knows for sure is that he does not like her and is intent on making her life miserable. As Faelin discovers the true reasons behind her upbringing in the human world and what her newfound power means, she'll have to decide who she can truly trust and who she can't.
