Two hearts, one tear. . . .
Sarah Lind has now discovered over half of the moongates scattered across the Six Realms that she will need to return to Earth. Just as miraculously to her, the dragon-shifter Heir of Flame has come to care for her, with the magical bond forged between them becoming stronger by the day.
Yet Sarah's choice of whether to embrace her destiny is still far from simple,
especially with the rising movement calling Sarah the long-promised Moondaughter, crushing her with the weight of their hopes, and the Tree's injunction that the future Queen of Ice must marry the future King of Flame.
Sarah loves Ben . . . but does she have the courage to become his Queen?
Koriben Sunfilled can hardly believe that Sarah wants him, and yet the truth now seems undeniable. With their goal just within reach, and the promised cure for his dying father that much closer, for a moment he soars higher than ever before.
Yet when someone he once trusted betrays him yet again,
this time endangering not just him but his beloved cousin as well, his spirit is shattered, and he isn't sure how to keep going, let alone bear the fear of losing Sarah too. But with another now vying for Sarah's heart . . . he just might lose her in another way.
Ben loves Sarah . . . but does he have the strength to allow her to love him in return?
With only four days left for them to finish their quest before the Devourer's invasion, neither of them have much time to find the answers. Yet if they don't . . .
. . . the darkness could tear them apart.
