The chance to strike Viola down is at Roze's fingertips. But he needs something from Viola. And he's willing to spare her life to get it.Forced to work together, Viola and Roze uncover terrible secrets, sinister threats . . . and an irresistible attraction. Can they learn to trust each other in time to save themselves--and bring the light back to Aragoa?











Sometimes, when evenings stretch into long, quiet hours, I try to find small rituals that ease the weight of solitude—soft music, dimmed lights, and the comforting hum of the city outside.
