🔥 OUTLANDER meets THE BLACK DAGGER BROTHERHOOD in a sweeping dark fantasy of forbidden love, divided loyalties, and deadly destiny.
From New York Times, USA TODAY, Amazon Top-15, and #1 Dark Fantasy bestselling author Tamara Rose Blodgett comes another gripping installment in the Top-10 bestselling Historical Fantasy Savage Series.
BLOOD DEFINES THEIR PAST. LOVE COULD DESTROY THEIR FUTURE.
A sacred rite. A divided warrior. A love that defies everything.
Edwin is determined to return to his Cape Cod clan before the Rite of the Select—a tradition powerful enough to change his future forever.
But the journey home is anything but certain.
With Philip at his side, Edwin must navigate dangerous territory, rising enemies, and loyalties stretched to the breaking point. And for Philip, the greatest battle may be the one threatening his future with Calia.
Some destinies are chosen. Others are paid for in blood.
A WARRIOR DIVIDED BETWEEN TWO WORLDS
Adahy belongs to two peoples—and feels at home with neither.
Bound by his Band heritage and Iroquois roots, he carries the burden of old sins and impossible loyalties.
Then he meets Elise.
Wounded by a past she cannot escape, Elise recognizes something in Adahy that mirrors her own fractured soul.
Their attraction is dangerous. Their connection undeniable.
And as war approaches, Adahy must confront a devastating truth:
The woman who could save his soul may be the one he cannot protect.
WHEN LOVE BECOMES THE GREATEST RISK
A sinister force is gathering strength, threatening to destroy everything the clans have fought to preserve.
As Adahy and Elise face an increasingly ruthless enemy, Philip and Calia find their own fragile future threatened by forces beyond their control.
Secrets will surface. Allegiances will fracture. And the Rite of the Select may demand sacrifices no one is prepared to make.
When survival demands betrayal, how far will a warrior go for the one he loves?
