Ari struggles with a power she can't deny and a destiny she's determined to fight in this dark and sexy sequel to "Darkness Becomes Her." With no other options, Ari must unleash the very thing she's afraid of: herself.

However, she faces a powerful temptation to abandon her world and betray Balen, who is prepared to risk everything to protect her and combat the impending war.
