Sigrid is no stranger to standing up against injustice, but that is a far cry from revolt. An oppressive human king continues to make life for elves difficult, enacting strong penalties for elven brothels and shutting down elven temples. In a split-second decision, she gives refuge to the handsome half-elf Baldr, the son of a high-ranking figure in a secret rebellion brewing beneath Copper City’s surface. Suddenly, Sigrid finds herself in the midst of a revolution in the making and discovers she desperately wants a change in not just her life, but the lives of all elves under human rule. As unrest and violence flood the streets, Sigrid must assert herself as someone worth listening to in a world that doesn’t take women like her seriously.
Agreeing to join Baldr on a journey to gain allies, Sigrid finds herself in a world she is not sure she can fit into. As her heart begins to pound at his mere presence, can Sigrid make love blossom in a time of war?
