Alone at last but for a few uninvited companions--a near-mythical wolf, a goddess's avatar, and a feline that embodies magic itself--Oneira realizes that she's bored. On a whim, or perhaps at the behest of fate, she makes an unlikely trip to the most extensive library in existence: the home of her most powerful rival, the sorcerer Stearanos. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBy recklessly stealing a book from him, Oneira inadvertently initiates a forbidden correspondence. Taunting notes and clever retorts reveal a connection neither has found--nor could ever find--in any other. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut Oneira soon learns that Stearanos, bound to a vile king, is tasked with waging war on the queen she once served. A relationship with him is far too dangerous to pursue despite their mutual desire--and yet, Oneira can't seem to stay away. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA bond with Stearanos could alight the long-extinct flame of life within her...or it could destroy her entirely.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jennifer K.
