With a new King on the throne of Annwyn and the mortal world trying to rebuild after plagues killed so many, Henry seizes the opportunity to carve out a place of his own.
'A spy without a soul...
'Darah was Felan's spy before he became King of Annwyn. Now he has one last mission for her. He wants her to join the darkling's Court and discover what Henry's endgame is.

But is love worth betraying her King?'

'A man with secrets…
'Kaid White isn’t a man, he’s a kelpie. Born a horse in Annwyn, he crossed the veil to the mortal world and learned how to shift and become a man. However, he made one mistake and was caught. The current owner of his bridle is Henry Saint, the Darkling Lord, and he refuses to release Kaid.
'A price to be paid…
'With the bridle hidden and needing help Kaid turns to Janet. She is a reporter who uncovered the truth about fairies—and had her memories erased. He knows that she can help him. But if she learns what he is, the attraction that has started growing between them will die. And if she digs too deep she’ll be in danger. This time, more than her memory would be erased.'
