Change is inevitable. Peace is easy to shatter, but hard to rebuild, just like trust. Greed has always led to humanity's worst mistakes. Yet it is vengeance that led Selenetta to her worst mistakes. Waking up with no memory of her past, all she wants or needs is the care of her adoptive parents, yet she longs for the ones who gave her life. Only some dreams are meant to come true, and for the Fae, achieving peaceful dreams is almost impossible. On one horrible night, Selene loses her dream and is thrown into an unfamiliar world against her will. With a bounty on her head and memories resurfacing, she must navigate this new world. Now all she wants is to embrace the darker part of her mind and seek revenge on the one who stole her from the peaceful world she was in, stole her away from her family, and uncover her memories. Could the unfortunate loss of memory and the loss of her current family be connected?

Once upon a time, a wise Queen predicted that after millennia of peace, the evils she had once fought to vanquish would come back to seek vengeance. Men and Fae, under the thumb of one common enemy. When all hope seemed lost, in the darkest hour, the heroes once prophesied would rise again. The descendants of the Kings-- young warriors willing to defy it all to save them.
Ella is not the young woman that left Rhothomir all those months ago. She has a choice to make now. She has a role to play, more significant than anything she could have imagined. Will it be more than she bargained for? Magic, life and death all have a price, and Ella will find out just how steep that price is.
In a story written long before she was born, death might be the only answer, but it certainly isn't the end.
The second and final book in the HOG duology, a fantasy story full of action, romance and magic!
