A Deadly Dance of Power and Desire
In the treacherous world of Elfhame, where beauty conceals cruelty and no one speaks direct lies while everyone deceives, Jude Duarte walks a dangerous path. Five months have passed since she manipulated the cruel Prince Cardan onto the throne, binding him to her will through blackmail. Now she rules from the shadows as the power behind the throne-a mortal girl secretly controlling the High King of Faerie. But power, as her foster father Madoc once taught her, is far easier to acquire than to hold. Her puppet king proves unpredictable, indulging in debauchery while deliberately testing the limits of her control. Meanwhile, Queen Orlagh of the Undersea threatens to break her treaty with the land, potentially sinking all of Elfhame beneath the waves unless Cardan agrees to marry her daughter Nicasia. As Jude navigates this treacherous political landscape, she discovers that the greatest danger may not be losing her power-but losing her heart to the wicked king she's supposed to control.
