In the riveting sequel to Cursed Wishes, award-winning author Marcy Kennedy returns to the isles of medieval Scotland in a fast-paced fantasy where evil creatures roam the earth and danger is hidden in every lie you tell yourself.
NOTHING WITH THE FAE IS EVER FREE, ESPECIALLY NOT VICTORY…
Ceana Campbell wakes up in Duntulm Castle after surviving the battle with the nuckalevee, believing that it’s only a matter of days until her curse is lifted. Gavran will return for her as soon as he heals from the wound the nuckalevee gave him, and Lady MacDonald will take them to her fae contact.
At least, that’s how it was supposed to go, but magical wounds aren’t like natural ones.
The nuckalevee infected Gavran with a poisonous venom when it struck him down. Within a fortnight, he’ll die a painful death unless they can find an equally magical cure.
THE MOST DANGEROUS MONSTER IS SOMETIMES THE ONE WITHIN…
Gavran Anderson’s mind is no longer his own. Whatever the nuckalevee venom has done to him, the physical effects are the least of his worries. He’s not even as terrified as he should be that the only way to cure him involves facing another fae who’d rather see them suffer.
What scares him the most are the voices in his head. The ones telling him that the people he thought were his friends want him dead. That he’ll feel better if they’re gone.
Can Ceana find a way to outwit an opponent more cruel and cunning than she ever imagined possible before time runs out?
Or before Gavran kills her first?
