After narrowly escaping a life of servitude on the brutal Slaver's Way, 20-year-old Evolet Northwhit is saved by two servants of the king of a country she has never heard of-The Kingdom of Taya. With little options and a cruel fate awaiting her back home, she works with the massive fae to escape her wretched home, and meet their powerful elven king. When the king offers her asylum, she learns the word does not truly mean safety. When the royal family from Firen comes to Taya, Evolet must decide which is worse: being a puppet for a wicked prince or the most powerful weapon for a brutal fae queen. If she cannot choose the right evil to serve, Evolet will never know the sweet taste of freedom she has fought so long for.
