Editorial Reviews:"This is an incredible wonderful fantastic story that is written by a true storyteller who keeps you reading with every word written.... The world building is again fantastic, giving us a wonderful picture of the world they live in.... This is an incredibly woven tale that I couldn't put down and didn't want to end." -- M/M Good Book Reviews"Miss Haimowitz has got it, she has outdone herself in this one when it comes to the writing.... I am not surprised by the awesmazingness that is this book. The bitter hate humans feel towards things they don't understand/fear is captured splendidly. The adventure would make any fan of fantasy happy in their pants, such imagery and passion filled the pages.... This is fantastic read filled with love, anger, hatred and a plot so deeply intricate you will lose yourself in the pages." -- Darien at Pants Off ReviewsBook Description:History made them enemies. Chance made them master and slave. Love overcame it all. But love isn't always enough...Bridging the hatred of centuries did not come easy for Freyrík Farr and Ayden Vaska. As prince of a war-torn human province, Freyrík could ill afford to fall for an enemy. And Ayden, an elven warrior with three hundred years of bitterness in his heart, wanted no part of love--not elven, and especially not human. Yet they came together despite themselves and despite the will of their peoples, joining heart and mind to fight a race of Dark Beasts threatening the extinction of mankind.But the Dark Beast threat pales beside the dangers of the human High Court, home of the Aegis Exalted and the harshest test yet of Ayden's and Freyrík's fledgling love.While Ayden is stripped of his magic, Freyrík is forced to choose between his love for elf, Aegis, and brother, all the while seeking the one uncertain path that might save his doomed race. Time is fast running out for mankind, and only by making peace amongst themselves and with their ancient elven enemies can they end the Dark war--and undo the tragedy that's plagued humans, elves, and Dark Beasts alike for the last three hundred years.
