About the book
The pulse-pounding third novel in the #1 New York Times bestselling series The Lightlark Saga, by acclaimed author and #BookTok sensation Alex Aster
Love has the power to destroy kingdoms...
Inside Grim’s castle in Nightshade, Isla is struggling to cope with the aftermath of a fierce battle and the harsh truths that were revealed. The future of both her and the world now depends on a heart that is torn between two paths.
The Isla from the past, who once fell for the ruler of Nightshade, is trying to suppress feelings that she deems as betrayal. Meanwhile, the present Isla, who has witnessed the havoc her abilities can wreak, is willing to do whatever it takes to protect Lightlark and its monarch.
As Isla grapples with the blurred lines between foe and ally, she becomes increasingly desperate to decipher the oracle’s last prophecy and alter her heartbreaking destiny. However, a tempest is on the horizon, bringing with it an ancient malevolence more powerful than anything the realms have ever known.
With time running out for her and the fate of two conflicting kingdoms hanging in the balance of her shattered heart, Isla Crown must make a choice - to either be the savior of the world or its downfall.
