While the rebellion plots a daring scheme, important people start turning up dead. Draven is tasked with solving the murders. Selena is trying to help the killer. If either one of them fails, they will face dire consequences. When blood stains the ice and dangerous secrets are brought to light, Selena must decide if she is willing to doom Draven in order to achieve her own goals. After everything that has happened between them, their relationship is already complicated. But now, with their very lives on the line, their tangled feelings for each other might destroy them both.

"OMFG. This picks up right where book 1 drops us..off that dang cliff and immediately plunges you into schemes, mystery, delicious banter and one heck of a battle that had me fighting for my life. Between the Fae, the humans, the resistance, and freaking dragons, there’s not a single moment to breathe. With tensions sky high, everything feels so fragile..like one wrong move and everything could shatter. The way loyalties are tested and lines are blurred had me stressed in TF out lol. And that ending though…here we go again cus I’m already running to book 3. 4.5⭐️ 🎧 Narrated by Laura Horowitz and dang did she do an amazing job bringing all these characters to life 😍 ["
