Synopsis
Nights of Steel and Shadow is the spellbinding sequel to Nights of Iron and Ink. Enter the world of the fae, where danger and destiny collide. A mission. Vera is determined to make amends, but breaking into the Faylands is difficult, if not impossible, and all her attempts to bring Ronan to her have failed. When she learns he's gone missing, she undertakes a risky mission to find him, and unknowingly falls right into Boone's trap. He's been hunting her since Mayhem, and he's determined to put her and her beast down for good. A heartbreak. Vera is put on trial and sentenced to death for her crimes, but in a twist of fate, it's Ronan who saves her. He whisks her away to the Faylands where she learns the unsettling news that King Desmond is searching for her and comes face to face with the gut-wrenching truth behind Ronan's disappearance, dissolving any hope of a future between them. A ruse. Ronan has two months to recover the godstone and Vera isn't letting him go alone. As they search for a secret entrance into the Nighter's hideaway, they discover the king isn't the only one hunting Vera. They must take on new identities to evade capture, but the lines between reality and fantasy quickly blur. Despite past wrongs, and the circumstances keeping them apart, their connection is undeniable. A war. Old passions ignite, but soon lies and secrecy threaten the mending trust between them just when they need it most. Enemies are at their door and war is coming. They must put their trust in one another or face an impossible choice—give up their lives and everything they hold dear, or each other. The only problem is, the last time they tried, it nearly killed them.
