Book description
For Caillen Dagan, a defiant soldier of fortune, survival isn't a
right: it's a brutal daily battle. Moving through the Ichidaian universe
like a wraith, his brushes with the law and death are legendary. But
when an act of rare heroism reveals his hidden birthright, he's forced
into a world much more dangerous and cold-hearted than the bloody
streets where he was raised - one of obscene wealth and lethal politics.
Ferocious and determined, Desideria serves as an official bodyguard for
her queen. Born of questionable genetics, she will do anything to prove
herself worthy of the weapons she carries and the position she's won by
combat. But when she uncovers a ruthless plot to assassinate the queen
and overthrow her country's government, Desideria is caught in the
crossfire. With assassination contracts out on both of them, Caillen and
Desideria must learn to fight together or die alone. And if they fail,
their governments will fall into the hands of an unimaginable evil.
Writing as Sherrilyn Kenyon and Kinley MacGregor, she is the No. 1 NEW
YORK TIMES bestselling and award-winning author of several series: the
Dark-Hunters; the Lords of Avalon; The Chronicles of Nick, the League
and the Belador. She lives with her husband and three sons in Nashville,
Tennessee.
