DESCRIPTION

When a warlock abducts her sister, Mikayla Keyes does what any loving sibling
would do; she steps into a mushroom circle and gets trapped in Faerie.

Mikayla doesn't have the power to defeat a warlock, and neither does her family.
When it comes to the dark dealings of a warlock, no witch can win.

But the fae can, and if Mikayla seduces one of them into surrendering their True
Name, then she can use their power to defeat the warlock and bring her sister
home.

Only Faerie is nothing like the stories Mikayla grew up with. The strikingly
handsome Prince Wren, who pulls her from the mushroom circle, treats her like a
threat. And while Mikayla expected him to be handsome, nothing else about the
prince makes any sense at all.

Caught between Faerie politics, the desperate need to secure power, and her
growing affections for the fae prince she plans to use, Mikayla must untangle a
web of conflicting desires, and keep her heart from shattering into a thousand
tiny pieces.

DESCRIPTION

When Prince Wren gives Mikayla Keyes his True Name, she does what any sane woman
would do; she smashes those feelings down deep and focuses on saving her sister.

It's not like she has a choice. She's back in the human realm, Wren is in Faerie,
and The Fringe, an impenetrable barrier that stands between the two, makes sure
it stays that way. Besides, Mikayla has her own True Name now. She doesn't need
Wren to save Maddie; she has the fae magic to do it herself.

Too bad she doesn't know how to use it.

Prince Wrendall Locke is doing his best to pick up the shattered pieces Kay left
behind, but his mother's health is failing, and Rook is one step closer to the
crown. The destruction of The Treaty that has kept the human realm safe from fae
greed for the last two hundred years is no longer a matter of if, only when.

And when that time comes, Wren must be ready.

Caught in their separate worlds, Mikayla races to master her magic before her
sister is lost for good, while Wren desperately seeks a way to defeat his brother
and hold back an inevitable war. Their problems grow. The distance between them
doesn't shrink, and no matter how hard they try, neither one can bring themselves
to let go.

Some pulls are stronger than the barrier between worlds.
