Mac thought returning to Ireland would be straightforward vengeance, but she's about to discover that nothing in her life is what it seems—not her past, not her powers, and definitely not the ancient war between humans and Fae that's about to consume everything she holds dear. As she hunts for a dangerous magical artifact and grapples with a heritage both blessed and cursed, the lines between hunter and hunted blur dangerously, and the people closest to her become collateral damage in a conflict older than civilization itself. Torn between mysterious allies, seductive enemies, and the terrifying truth of her own destiny, Mac must navigate impossible choices that could either save the world or obliterate it. This epic fantasy romance will leave you breathless with its dark magic, high stakes, and the unforgettable question: can Mac survive becoming something she never imagined?
Reading soundtrack
