Description
Edeiros awaits its new queen, but there's more than one contender for the crown. Eden Tudor is a Sentinel. As one of the king's personal lawmen, he's tasked with preserving law and order everywhere but within himself. His dark past has been weighing him down for six years, and nothing seems to help until he falls for the king's young bride-to-be, Rosalinda de Silva, and his world comes crashing down around him. As a Sentinel, Valentine de Casillis swore an oath to protect the monarchy. Born to nobility, he's eighteen and stands second only to the king himself. Still, as important as Val is, he can never seem to forget what he's lost: his beloved mother, his murderous father, and his own emotions. After discovering he's a person with the Sight- someone able to see emotions and energy, along with the very weave of the universe- he doesn't even remember what love is anymore. Like all those with his ability, he's purged everything that makes him feel human. Malina Emberga has left the country of her birth behind to come to Edeiros. Blessed by the gods with powers of absolute control, the world could fall at her feet if she wished it. But with great power comes great responsibility; her all-seeing uncle Paolo, speaker of the gods, says she's too reckless for her own good. Her powers, while great, don't often seem to go her way in the end... and one wrong move leads her straight into the unfeeling hands of the Head Sentinel-- Valentine de Casillis himself. They say the gods determine fate, but in a world of forced destiny, three mortals choose a different path entirely. They choose to forego their mortality. They choose their own fate, and they don't need it to be kind. They choose to become young gods themselves.
