THE FIRST BOOK IN THE CONTINERE SERIES

Imagine if everything you believe you know is wrong. The people who are closest to you aren't who they say they are and even the way you perceive the world changes in a blink of an eye. War rages around you with players you didn't even know existed and grudges dating back beyond the length of your lifetime. There are those with powers you cannot hope to rival and abilities that you cannot even begin to fathom. But one thing is for sure, the responsibility of your country and all its people lay with whoever sits on the throne.

Novena Mace is the heir to the South Continere throne - a rich, unique human civilization boarded by their age old supernatural enemies in the North. Competing only with her older brother Ragnar, she does not have a hope that the Nobility will pick her over him until circumstances reveal a need for drastic measures. War is brewing with the life of their father hanging in the balance, South Continere needs a leader brave enough to stand up to their savage enemies. Novena is in a desperate race to find a way to prevent a war that's already looking bleak against the deadly Crowned Prince who seems eager to conquer more than just her country.

Time is slipping as deadly obsessions begin mounting, betrayals are unfolding and love cannot be ignored.
