Synopsis
This novel follows three young women tied to the SaDiablo family as each confronts a personal crossroads. Zoey, a Queen-in-training, is left vulnerable after being wounded and, against warning, forms a bond with a mysterious stranger seeking sanctuary, a choice that puts herself and others in danger. Jillian, a witch preparing for her Virgin Night rite of passage, has secretly already undergone the ceremony and must find the courage to admit this to her formidable family. Meanwhile Saetien, daughter of the High Lord of Hell, travels to Scelt hoping to learn more about Jaenelle Angelline's sister and, in the process, uncover truths about her own identity. Guided by Witch, all three must learn when to yield and when to stand firm, whatever price that stand demands.
