After centuries of stability, the balance among the Faery Courts has altered, and Irial, ruler of the Dark Court, is battling to hold his rebellious and newly vulnerable fey together. If he fails, bloodshed and brutality will follow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Seventeen-year-old Leslie knows nothing of faeries or their intrigues. When she is attracted to an eerily beautiful tattoo of eyes and wings, all she knows is that she has to have it, convinced it is a tangible symbol of changes she desperately craves for her own life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The tattoo does bring changes\u2014not the kind Leslie has dreamed of, but sinister, compelling changes that are more than symbolic. Those changes will bind Leslie and Irial together, drawing Leslie deeper and deeper into the faery world, unable to resist its allures, and helpless to withstand its perils. . .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About Melissa Marr:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/images.gr-assets.com\/authors\/1556828699p5\/175855.jpg?resize=186%2C189&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"186\" height=\"189\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Melissa Marr is a former university literature instructor who writes fiction for adults, teens, and children.
