I survived the savage brutality of the Wilds and its vicious monsters only to find myself in more danger than ever before. Despite the queen’s continued attempts against my life, the ancient magic of the Fae Heir Trials forces me to continue competing in its deadly challenges. The prize of the next trial? To marry Drake Rush Vega—my mate. The ladies of court I’ll be competing against to win the honor that belongs only to me merely pretend to be civilized. Beneath all their careful etiquette and artifice, they are conniving and calculating. As lethal as the beasts of the Wilds—and as ready to use their sharp teeth and claws. While I’m forced to play in her games, the queen only grows stronger. She’s sworn to protect the fae, to revere the dragons, to look out for them above all others. She’s betrayed them all. I alone hold the secret to her defeat. But I’m as afraid of the power within me as she is. It’s as likely to kill me as help me, to ruin Embermere as fix it. To save the fae and the dragons—to save everything I love—I must master the power too great for any one person to wield. I might have arrived in Embermere kicking and screaming, but now I’m not leaving until I’ve secured what belongs to me. The crown and Rush are mine. * Fae Crown contains material that may be triggering for some audiences.
