In a desperate gamble to save their people, Tamasine and Gavriil begin an epic journey across the country to reclaim the crown and quell the rebellion threatening it. Their quest brings them to the unlikeliest of places, where they will face pirates, thieves, fae, and, perhaps most frighteningly of all, each other.

But this mare isn't just wild-she's been abused, broken, and has lost all trust in humans. Now, Khloe faces two challenges: convincing her dad to buy the mare and, if she succeeds, proving to the frightened horse that they are meant to be. But with a horse this damaged, the journey won't be easy. Can Khloe earn the mare's trust, or will someone get hurt in the process?Complete
