    Summary

    “You are exactly what they say you are. A traitorous egomaniac, a thief! Every word out of you is poison! You might wear that face and fool all the world, but you don’t fool me. You’re hideous inside, a monster.”

    Arlenna Rutherford, a lively, just a little too impatient young woman, had only ever known a life of safety – beside the oddity that she’d been born elven. Her biggest worry: The Circle denies her Harrowing, delaying. Again. But she is about to have her world turned upside-down. Soon, she has to face the fact that nothing in her sedate life is quite what it seems. When a man once believed a god has plans for you, you might find yourself torn from home, tossed into a maze of secrets and schemes. Left fumbling in the dark, caught between forces of tremendous power. A dangerous game, the rules of which only the Dread Wolf might fully understand.

    No-frills summary: Post-Trespasser, Beauty and the Beast theme, Abduction theme, Lore & Magic rich, (somewhat) Slow Burn Romance story, with Angst and Feels and much Solas-Drama. Of course, tension and some sexy times! First person POV. Contains major Spoilers to the first part of the series Resolution, but can be read independently.
