Five years have now passed since the Winter War between the
Outlands and Hetar. But Gaius Prospero has not given up his
scheme to become emperor, and unexpected tragedy causes
Lara to once again heed the pull of her destiny. Finding
herself across the sea in a secret new world known as
Terah, she discovers that her magical abilities grow
greater with each passing day.
Using her newfound powers, Lara lifts an ancient curse from
the men of Terah, earning its ruler's gratitude—and his
deep and passionate love. Magnus Hauk has never known a
woman like Lara, and his fascination leads him to venture
back across the sea with her to prevent another war. There,
however, the ruler of Terah learns that betrayal is an
everyday commodity; nothing is exactly what it seems in
beautiful, sinister Hetar. And the lovers attract the
animosity of Prospero, a dangerous enemy to have. For
power, dear reader, does corrupt absolutely.
This tale continues to unfold within the corridors of my
imagination. I hope you will enjoy Lara's further
adventures as she continues to seek out her true destiny. I
know I am enjoying writing it for you.
