Sarah A. Parker Bücher

Er kann ohne sie nicht leben. Sie hat nur eine Chance: ihn zu vergessen. Raeve kennt nur ein Ziel: Als Mitglied der Rebellion hat sie geschworen, bis zu ihrem letzten Atemzug zu kämpfen. Für diejenigen, die es selbst nicht können. Und gegen jene machthungrigen Thronerben, die ihr Land in Chaos und Finsternis stürzen. Als ihre beste Freundin bei einem grausamen Attentat stirbt, dessen Opfer eigentlich Raeve werden sollte, ist Vergeltung alles, woran sie noch denken kann. Stärker als das Feuer der Drachen lodert der Zorn in ihr. Doch als sie sich im ausweglosesten Gefängnis wiederfindet, die Hände voller Blut, steht plötzlich Kaan vor ihr. Der mächtige Herrscher, der all das verkörpert, was Raeve verabscheut – und dessen Drache ihr doch das Leben rettet. In Kaans dunklen Augen verbergen sich Abgründe, und Raeve spürt, dass ihr Kampf um die Freiheit unweigerlich mit ihm verbunden ist. Mit den Geheimnissen, die er ihr verschweigt – und ihren Gefühlen, die alles, woran sie glaubt, zu zerstören drohen. Bestsellerautorin Sarah A. Parker zeichnet eine unvergessliche Welt, in der der Kampf um die Macht von mächtigen Gottheiten, uralter Magie und einem Himmel voller Drachen bestimmt wird.

"What a pretty flower to keep locked in a big, rocky tower." Nineteen years ago, I was plucked from the heart of a bloody massacre that spared nobody else. Small. Fragile. An enigma. Now ward to a powerful High Master who knows too much and says too little, I lead a simple life, never straying from the confines of an imaginary line I've drawn around the castle grounds. Stay within. Never leave. Out there, the monsters lurk. Inside, I'm safe...though at a cost far greater than the blood I drip into a goblet daily. Toxic, unreciprocated love for a man who's utterly unavailable. My savior. My protector. My almost executioner. I can't help but be enamored with the arcane man who holds the power to pull my roots from the ground. When voracious beasts spill across the land and threaten to fray the fabric of my tailored existence, the petals of reality will peel back to reveal an ugly truth. But in a castle puddled with secrets, none are greater than the one I've kept from myself. No tower is tall enough to protect me from the horror that tore my life to shreds.

It's not in my nature to beg, but I'll stay on my knees until I feel that flame sputter out. And then ... I'll rip the world to shreds. I've tumbled into a darkness so deep it's hard to see the light, my petals curling inward as I tip my face from the sun. Hide from my monstrous actions. Traitor. Murderer. High Mistress. My mistakes hunt me down, and I'm pulled into a political tug-of-war, balancing Ocruth's welfare on the edge of a bloody blade. The moon is swelling, the weight on my shoulders compacting, and my unfailing curiosity keeps weaving its roots in the wrong direction. Horrible truths unravel, casting explosive light on everything I thought I knew. I'll have no choice but to shed my morals, my withering self-preservation, and sow the seed of a plan set to bloom beneath a bloated moon. One wrong move could destroy everything. Destroy me. Lines will blur, blood will spill, and I'll learn how fragile I really am-at a cost far greater than I could have imagined. Fate is a ravenous beast, and there's only so far I can run.
