Publisher's summary

Some humans can see the fae. McKenzie Lewis can track them, reading the shadows they leave behind. But some shadows lead to danger. Others lead to lies.

A Houston college student trying to finish her degree, McKenzie has been working for the fae king for years, tracking vicious rebels who would claim the Realm. Her job isn't her only secret. For just as long, she's been in love with Kyol, the king's sword-master—and relationships between humans and fae are forbidden.

Any hope for a normal life is shattered when she's captured by Aren, the fierce and uncompromising rebel leader. He teaches her the forbidden fae language and tells her dark truths about the Court, all to persuade her to turn against the king.

Time is running out, and as the fight starts to claim human lives, McKenzie has to decide once and for all whom to trust—and where she ultimately stands in the face of a cataclysmic civil war.

The one that almost got away

I read this book way back in the day before the 3rd and final book came out and it was the story I waited years for. Many series fade into distant memories but this one stuck with me. The character was relatable and made valid jumps in logic. She’s 26 in the story so she is pretty settled as a person which is refreshing. And this first book draws you right into a unique world of Fae and the humans who walk the line between worlds.
