In her debut novel, author Alexa First weaves us into this spellbinding YA fantasy and delivers a story of courage, destiny, and a girl learning her own strength.

For seventeen years, Princess Faye has lived hidden away; trained, watched, and protected from a world that would tear her apart for what she is. Silver-blooded. Cursed. Powerful. But when she's taken by those who crave her magic, Faye is forced into a terrifying truth; she is no longer the girl locked in a tower; she is the prize in a deadly game. The one who captured her is dangerous. Unpredictable. Someone she should fear above all else. So why does he feel like the only one who truly sees her? As her bodyguard races against time to find her, the one person she's always trusted, Faye finds herself caught between two sides of a war; and two hearts pulling her in opposite directions. One is safety. One is danger. And the more time she spends in captivity; the harder it becomes to tell the difference. Because if she can't escape, her gift may become the very thing that destroys her.
