He's sworn to protect her, to give his life for hers. Giving her his heart, however, is absolutely forbidden.



For years he haunted my dreams. I never knew he was my shadow Fae guardian . . .



Or that I'm the future Queen of Nightmares.



Until he arrives, very much flesh and blood, to spirit me away to the Realm of Nightmares, and my awaiting throne.



But I'm not about to marry someone I've never met. If my guardian thinks I'll go quietly, he's about to have a fight on his hands.



What I'm not expecting is the powerful magic my guardian awakens in me . . . or the deep, dark secret he's hiding.



Contains mature themes.
