However, an unexpected twist forces them into an uneasy alliance, and they must become partners on a perilous journey to the veil, the gateway to the fae realm.
Queen Amira, Valeria's sister, is planning something terrible against the fae living in Castella, a deed that Valeria vehemently opposes. Desperate to avoid a crisis, Valeria sees reopening the veil as the only solution to save the fae and stop her sister from making a mistake she'll forever regret.
Pursued by the queen's guards, Valeria and R f or journey west accompanied by Jago, Esmeralda and her Romani troop. There are many hazards on the road, more than just Valeria's and R f or's passionate connection.

Getting answers and opening the veil becomes a race against time, with the fate of the fae hanging in the balance. Can Valeria and R f or overcome the lies and betrayals and save the fae from Amira's misguided anger? Or will their unbridled passion become everyone's doom?
