First published 2012
Jolie Wilkins awakens from a fairy magic attack to discover the Underworld teetering on the edge of war. Witches battle witches while creatures turn against their own kind, all orchestrated by Bella, who seeks to crown herself Queen. Jolie has her own vendetta to settle with Ryder, the vampire who nearly ended her life, but revenge proves complicated when larger forces demand her attention. She finds herself caught between two very different men: Rand, her warlock employer whose duty conflicts with his feelings, and Sinjin, a vampire whose mysterious allure threatens to distract her from her mission. As battle lines form across the supernatural realm, Jolie must navigate not only the political chaos but also her own heart. The witch who can bring back the dead holds power that both sides covet, making her a target and a prize. When shocking revelations shatter everything she believed about her world, Jolie faces choices that will determine not just her fate but the future of the Underworld itself.
