About the book
New York Times bestselling author Juliette Cross returns to her dark fae world in the highly anticipated book 2 of the RISE OF NORTHGALL series. Featuring ancient magick and fantastical creatures, the story follows a skald fae princess in a desperate situation, who must rely on a beast fae lord to ensure her survival.
Jessamine Glenmyr is in a desperate situation, fleeing from a dangerous enemy who has finally caught up to her in the Borderlands where she had hoped to disappear among society's misfits. Facing imminent danger, she ventures further into the treacherous dark fae territory, risking her life in the icy forests rather than succumb to the man who seeks to control her every move. Her flight for freedom takes a drastic turn when she is ambushed by mercenaries and left for dead.
Redvyr Vanglosa is taken aback when his wolf brings an injured light fae, Jessamine, to his camp. Wary of her kind, he feels compelled as a leader to assist her despite his reservations. The presence of a captivating fae disrupts the peace within his clan, but what intrigues him the most is how she manages to soothe the inner turmoil that has always plagued him - a feat no one else has achieved.
As grimlocks emerge from the depths of the mountains, abducting innocent beings, Jessamine reveals her hidden powers that could turn the tide in their favor. Despite the risks involved, she is determined to stand by Redvyr's side, even if it means exposing herself to the very danger she has been trying to evade.
However, as they uncover a malevolent force pulling the strings behind the grimlocks, Jessamine and Redvyr realize that their world is on the brink of destruction. Faced with an unimaginable threat that could tear them apart, they must find a way to combat the darkness that looms ahead before it engulfs everything they hold dear.
