Description
The first book in a searing new romantasy trilogy, perfect for fans of A LANGUAGE OF DRAGONS and THE PRIORY OF THE ORANGE TREE.
If he has the ability to wield magical powers, everyone will rejoice - especially the girl who loves him.
But what happens when they realize she has the gift?
In a world where dragons stalk the skies and magical abilities are an elite privilege, the ruling family of Ailm's Keep is on a knife edge: can Ionain, the heir apparent, channel magic, or will the family be cast out and replaced by a cruel master from a neighbouring land?
So when Eadha, a servant girl who loves Ionain, discovers that she can draw power, she finds herself in grave danger. It's extremely rare for a girl to have this talent, and certainly never outside the great families. At Ionain's moment of truth, Eadha makes a desperate gamble to save him, Ailm's Keep, and ultimately herself.
As Eadha and Ionain enter a whirlwind of patriarchy, class, heartache and jealousy, they learn about power's terrible cost - a price others willingly pay to maintain theirs.
How far would you go to empower the one you love?
