Summary:
In a world where marriage is forbidden, sex is only granted to male warriors, and the outer realm is full of murderous creatures, Arianna fights to protect the life of her only living relative, her brother.
Tardon, an elite warrior, is granted anything he desires by the Elders, but finds little joy in the voluptuous women presented to him. Born for the bloodlust found only in battle, complicated emotions emerge when he discovers his equal in the alluring warrior, Arianna.
Charged by the Elders with saving the castle from attack, Tardon and Arianna risk the curse when they traverse the vast outer realm to retrieve serum from the Tree of Life. If successful, the Elders have promised Tardon the right to marry and Arianna the cure for her brother's death fever. Will their love carry them through or will the discovery of a great deception be their ultimate demise?

MY THOUGHTS:
This is a FANTASTIC read!! There are so many great things about this book the scenes, the plot, the characters, and everything in between. Ciara Knight writes so well that you are so engrossed in the story that it is as if you are there in the moment watching every move the characters make!! You become invested in the main characters and really route for them. Then there is quite a surprising twist... actually a couple of twist that make the page turning even faster(if that were possible)! There are also a few steamy scenes (fanning myself over here) that can get your blood flowing! All I highly recommend this book!! I cannot wait to read another book by Ciara!!

I could not agree more with your review. This book was one of the best books I have read. The characters have so much personality and the whole world of the book was incredible. I love the way this writer made me feel about what was happening to these characters. She has an amazing way of bringing the reader into the story and making it real. Looking forward to more from Ms. Ciara Knight!
