Dante is determined to help her heal, to support her, to love her... but their love must be kept a secret because she is his only weakness and when his father discovers it he exiles her. Dante and Amara continue to keep a secret relationship as the years go on and as Dante slowly builds up his plans to destroy his father and finally take over... but when one of his plans involves him faking his death, that is the last straw for Amara.

Amara is still healing from her scars and she’ll have to find it in herself to see if she is ready to finally be with the one person who has loved her his entire life. Along the way are other mysteries that need to be unraveled, and the story of their young tragic love that transform into something deep, intimate, and beautiful as they grow older is told. This was a beautiful story about survival and healing, about love that endures and perseveres. Dante’s love for Amara was just *swoon*. This was honestly my favorite book of the series so far and can’t wait to see where it continues!!
