About the Book
"The Ashbournes' war with the Bask family is over. Kilraith's curse has been broken. But Lord Gideon Ashbourne doesn't want peace: he wants revenge. And the only thing standing in his way is his eldest daughter, the unflappable, tireless Farrin. But Farrin's composure masks a seething sorrow. Since her mother abandoned the family, Farrin's been their rock--managing her father's temper, running the estate, looking after her sisters. She isolates herself from anything that could distract or hurt her: pleasure, her own musical power, and, most of all, love. Enter Ryder Bask. In Ryder, an enemy turned reluctant ally, Farrin's stubborn strength has met its match. The man infuriates her. He's coarse, arrogant, stupidly handsome. He oozes sex, while Farrin can't bear the sight of her own naked body, and he brims with some secret anger that mirrors Farrin's own frustrated rage"--Book Synopsis

THE OLD WAR IS OVER. A NEW ONE IS JUST BEGINNING.
The curse plaguing the Ashbourne and Bask families has finally been broken, but Farrin, the eldest Ashbourne daughter, still struggles to find peace. Unflappable and tireless, her composure masks a seething sorrow. Since her mother abandoned the family, Farrin has been their rock--managing her father's temper, running the estate, keeping tight control over her dangerous musical power, and ignoring her own need for rest, distraction, and most of all, love.
In Ryder Bask, Farrin's stubborn strength has met its match. The man infuriates her. He's coarse, arrogant, annoyingly handsome. He's as tired of their feuding parents as she is, and he brims with some secret anger that mirrors Farrin's frustrated rage.
But Farrin must work with every ally she can--even the man she has been raised to hate. With every rising dawn, the Middlemist weakens further. Anointed magicians are disappearing. A fiery Olden creature is stalking Farrin. Strange visions haunt the High Queen Yvaine. And as Farrin and Ryder race to find stolen loved ones, they begin to realize a horrifying truth:
The gods are not dead. They're waking up. And someone is hunting them.
