They said power came from bloodlines. Alethia is about to learn it also comes with a body count.

At nineteen, Alethia Corpea lives under the illusion of a quiet life-until a royal summons drags her to the king's palace, where a strange magical bond ignites between her and the ruler himself. But when night falls, she follows her mother to the docks... and sees everything: the smuggling ring, the drug deals, and the brutal trafficking of magical beings.

Now Alethia must decide: stay silent and survive-or dismantle the empire her family is entangled with, through blood, magic, and secrets.

But the deeper she digs, the more she unearths-about her parents, her power, and the dark force hunting them all.

Perfect for fans of magic-twisted romance, secret empires, and morally gray heroines.All Rights Reserved

Earth is the first planet to have survived a war with Hunters and still have their element crystals intact. Fifty years have passed since the death of the Element Guardians and nobody knows where the crystals are. Though the realm still possesses the chance of new Guardians appearing, things have looked grim for the last fifty years - and as a result, all hope is lost. Terra turns fifteen within the next five full moons. Like every human left on the planet, she is a slave – the server girl to Hunters from day till night, only allowed a few hours of sleep. Survival was all she focused on, until her grandmother's life is taken by the cruel treatment of the Hunters. Now, Terra wants revenge. But what can a small girl like Terra do to a whole race of a ruthless alien species? She’s just one human girl, no magic, no nothing, just like three other adolescents who want nothing more than to restore human kind and the mortal realm. They have absolutely no power over the Hunters. Right?

Except, of course, the hapless peer knows nothing in the matters of romance...until he receives help from an unlikely quarter. MEETS AN EAGER MATCHMAKER Then enter Miss Winscott's cousin, the vivacious Caroline Davis, who oddly gets along well with the slightly waspish Earl. Determined to help, Caroline endeavours to make a match of the two. But for all her enthusiasm, she can't help but be drawn to the troubled lord... and things start to get a little tangled from there.
