death his cousins seek out Sola and beg her to give him a reason to live. The last thing she
wants is a return to her past but how can she leave him to die? As a lethal new enemy of the

not only a target but a mission-critical force in a war she doesn't understand. And when
Assail's truth comes out will she run from the horror . . . or follow her heart into the arms
of the male who loves her more than life itself?
