Novi Birk escaped from Fae territory with her heart and life barely intact. How much worse could things get? A lot worse, Novi learns, as she wanders the desert wastelands of the northern Flame Kingdom, alone and unable to summon more than a mere trickle of magical power. If the harsh desert climate doesn't kill her first, her broken heart will. After her Fae lover's betrayal and the loss of her magic-enhancing powder, her dreams of finding the lost Frost Seal and saving her sister's life seem unachievable. But then, she meets an unlikely ally. An ally who offers her a deal which Orson, her erstwhile Fae lover, would definitely not like. But Orson isn't coming to save her, so Novi must save herself. She accepts the deal, only to have Orson show up demanding explanations. Novi finds herself caught between a new friend and an old lover, trying to find the right path forward. But before she can choose, the decision is made for her. Word comes from her father: he knows of the Frost Seal's location. And he needs her help to find it. Novi rushes home, dragging along her unlikely mix of companions from the Fog and Flame Kingdoms. Along the way, she must fight monsters without and monsters within, not least of which is her yearning for Orson that she can't deny, no matter how angry she feels toward him. No matter how many times he explains why he did what he did, she can't quite forgive him. But when she finally finds her father and discovers what secrets he's been keeping from her, her anger reaches a whole new level. Novi has a destiny to fulfill, a destiny she never imagined. A destiny she'll need Orson's help to fulfill. Can she trust him not to break her heart again?
