Mia Rose wants only one thing: revenge against the Gwyrach who killed her mother. In a world where only women can possess magic--and every woman is suspected of having it--the half-girl, half-god Gwyrach are feared, reviled, and hunted. After training under her father and his infamous Hunters, Mia is determined to scour the four kingdoms and enact the Hunters' Creed: Heart for a heart, life for a life. But then her father announces a quite different future: she will marry Prince Quin, heir to the throne. Just like that, smart, headstrong Mia is thrust into the last role she ever wanted: pretty, wifely bauble to the future king. So, on the eve of her wedding, Mia plots a daring escape only to discover the unimaginable: she has magic. She may be a Huntress, but she's also a Gwyrach. As the truth comes to light, Mia must untangle the secrets of her own past. Friends darken into foes and logic begins to fray--as do the rules she has always played by. If Mia wants to survive, she must learn to trust her heart, even if it kills her.
