Everything I know is a lie.

I’m an ordinary mortal girl. Lord Irrik is a depraved dragon shifter. King Irdelron is an immortal tyrant.

In the disease ridden land of Verald, life is mapped out much like the established rings of our kingdom. Everyone has a role…
Me? I’ll be uselessly serving potato stew for the rest of my life because I can’t make anything grow.

But starvation brews rebellion.

When the king strikes, I’m captured by Lord Irrik. Instantly, I’m embroiled in a deadly game. One where I’m desperate to understand the rules.

Because nothing makes sense anymore.

Now, I'm not only fighting for my life . . . but a love that could be the key to my freedom.

What if the truth means you’re not who — or what — you thought you were?

4 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this book. Ryn proved to be such a strong character and I loved following her prove that over and over again. Irrick was one of those heroes you loved to hate. The glimpses of good in him were sprinkled throughout the story and had me hoping that in the end, he was going to be the person I was hoping him to be.

Another great KU find. Have book two, Shadow Wings, pre-ordered and ready for it's 2/8 release.
