War would be easier if she could tell who was right and who was wrong.
Chloe remains in Faerie, but she’s only supposed to stay long enough to defeat the bloodthirsty mortals who are trying to claim the land for themselves. But now she’s not so sure she wants to return to the mortal realm, especially when the devastatingly handsome fae, Quintus, keeps asking her to stay.
Even worse, defeating the mortals becomes more difficult by the day while their numbers continuously grow. She also learns exactly why they want the land. As a mortal herself, it’s hard to disagree with them. But they can’t take Faerie unless they steal it from the fae.
Alliances blur when Chloe realizes both sides deserve what they seek. But only one of them can win.

Pre-Order Incentive Claim Form
Which edition do you have to order?
You can order any edition (eBook, paperback, or hardcover)! You can even pre-order a signed book from my etsy shop, but the etsy pre-orders won’t be available until late August/early September. Just take a picture or screenshot of your receipt and submit it using the link above.
How does it help the author to pre-order the book?
The first 1-2 weeks after a book’s release signal to retailers how popular that book is, which affects how the book is treated on the website for years afterward. If you are willing and able to buy my book, please consider pre-ordering it or buying it during those first two weeks. That’s when your purchase will help me the most! Plus, as long as you submit your receipt, you’ll get the awesome pre-order incentive of two character cards and a very special necklace.
What will you receive for the pre-order incentive?
*All pre-order incentives have been claimed. This offer is now closed.*
You will receive two character cards of Chloe and Quintus. The first 35 people who submit their receipt will also receive a very special necklace with a moon and three stars, which matches the tattoos Chloe and Quintus have.
All pre-order incentives have limited quantities, but the necklaces will ONLY go to the first 35 people who submit their receipt.
The character cards feature Chloe and Quintus. Each character card is 3.5 inches x 5 inches, has a matte finish, and is one sided. The art for the character cards was done by artzzofkae. Check out the artist’s instagram page here. The character cards you will receive are below.


For the first 35 people ONLY, you will also receive this very special necklace. It has a moon and three stars, just like the tattoos Chloe and Quintus have. (***UPDATE: all necklaces have been claimed, character cards are still available)


When will you get your goodies?
The character cards and necklace will be sent out during release week (October 17-21). If you are in the USA, your goodies should arrive about a week after they are sent. If you are outside the USA, shipping could take several weeks.
Quantities are Limited!
All necklaces have been claimed. Character cards are still available, but there is a limited number of those as well. Once the character cards have all been claimed, this page will be updated and no more receipts will be accepted. To ensure you receive your pre-order incentive, please pre-order and submit your receipt as soon as possible.
