All her life, healer Diem Bellator has yearned to escape her tiny village in Emarion, a realm ruled over by cruel demigods known as the Descended. Although her parents have always tried to shield her from their brutality, Diem’s world changes forever when her mother goes missing, leading her to uncover a dangerous secret that links her family to the dreaded Descended in ways she never imagined. The journey to unravel the web of mysteries Diem’s mother left behind is long and treacherous, and it soon leads her into the dark domain of those who rule her world: the Descended’s royal palace itself. With the dying king’s handsome, enigmatic heir watching her every move, and a ruthless rebel alliance urging her to join the looming civil war, Diem must reevaluate everything she thought she knew to save her loved ones – and finally discover the truth about her world. Glow of the Everflame The brighter the truth burns, the more it will reveal . . . With the threat of war looming ever closer, Diem Bellator must now survive the next thirty days by forming a devil’s bargain with her sworn enemies, the royal family of House Corbois. As she dives further into the world of the Descended elite, old prejudices are challenged, and new loyalties blur the line between friend and foe. While Diem fights to save her people, the secrets her missing mother left behind become increasingly hard to ignore. And, caught between a familiar old flame and an intoxicating new spark, Diem must soon make an impossible choice. War approaches and dangerous enemies lurk on all sides, but the most deadly battle that Diem faces may ultimately be the fight for her heart . . . Heat of the Everflame The war has begun. And both sides demand Diem's allegiance . . . or her death. After her disastrous coronation, Diem is now at the centre of the conflict between the Descended and the Guardians. With her newfound friends - and the man she's falling for - on one side, and the mortals she vowed to protect on the other, Diem must walk a careful line to save the people she loves from one another. When the mystery of her unusual heritage starts to unravel, it sends Diem and Luther on an unexpected journey across the realms. The answers they seek may hold the key to winning the war, but finding them will require Diem to face painful truths about her mother, her bloodline, and her fate. The Crowns now have Diem in their sights, and while some could be her greatest allies, to end their oppressive reign, Diem must sort friend from foe and risk it all to build an army of her own. Meanwhile, a powerful figure in the north has plans that could change everything . . . ...
