Ophelia's life is anchored by the measurable laws of the universe. As a dedicated heliophysicist, she trusts what she can prove and she trusts Nick, her therapist turned boyfriend. But when an impossible fracture in reality violently tears Ophelia, Nick, her housecat, and bestfriend out of the human world and plunges them into the untamed Fae realm of Fenraeis, all earthly logic shatters.

Stranded in a world that shouldn't exist, Ophelia quickly realizes they aren't just lost. They are being hunted.

The Crownless, a terrifying and relentless entity, doesn't want her dead; he wants her caged. He intends to enslave Phee to siphon the elusive, ancient power awakening in her blood. It is a dormant, near-endless well of magic that hasn't been seen in an age, and this scientist has no idea how to control it.

Desperate to keep the people she loves alive, Ophelia must become the warrior she was never meant to be. To survive, she is forced into an uneasy alliance with Kane-the ruthless High King who might be just as dangerous as the monsters hunting them.

As her impossible abilities rise to the surface, Ophelia realizes her arrival in Fenraeis wasn't an accident. She doesn't believe in destiny, but to keep her power out of the hands of a monster and to save those she loves, she must forge her own.
