Fate will not be denied. Nerissa thinks she's safe from the gods and elders that rule her village. She's wrong. It's only a matter of time before she is chosen to pay the ultimate price-her life. As the maiden sacrifice nears Nerissa takes matters into her hands. All she needs is a husband to escape the terms of the offering. When she meets Zeer, a visiting fisherman, he sweeps her off her feet. Are her prayers truly answered? Everyone around her is keeping secrets, and there is no one left to rely on but herself. As the night ushers in a violent storm that echoes the god's anger, she realizes the worst is yet to come. When the first rays of dawn arrive, a knock sounds at her door and she knows her entire world is about to turn upside down.
