Nikan Cain is officially 18.
It's hard to tell whether he can call himself a kid anymore, but what he does know is that in the one last summer bordering adulthood, his whole world would come crashing down.
Grappling with the legacy of his martyred mother in the kingdom of Zyros, where shimmering intertwines with the ancient grudges of the First Lights, the line between love and revenge begins to blur dangerously as Nikan is haunted by his mother's tragic past.
Drawn to Alzir, the very son of king Inox, Nikan risks everything for a forbidden romance not to be spoken out loud. Yet the shadow of his mother's closest friend, Zara, looms over his world. Consumed by a decades-long vendetta, her plan to make it even threatens to break the fragile peace and do something which cannot be taken back.
Caught between the tides of his growing affection for Alzir and the threat of war, Nikan must choose between love and loyalty, revenge and hate.
Can Nikan defy the fate of his name and the path set upon him, or will he ultimately be swept away by the tides of revenge?
