When the skies split and the veil between Earth's realm and the Godly realms is lifted, the prophecy awakens in the form of eighteen-year-old Shivalri Grimsbane, she with the blood of all three realms.

As they learn to work together, one for vengeance, one for secret escape, Shivalri discovers that the world is not all as it seems. As her feelings toward the exiled God turn from resentment to a fiery mess of confusion, her virtue and damnation clash to rule her heart. ​ WHEN THE FATES STRING A DESTINY, THEY LEAVE NO STRING UNRAVELED. WILL HER CORDS LIGHT THE WAY?
