Of Dreams and Shadows

Her reality is a dream. His is a nightmare.

Faerie blessed at birth, Princess Aroreh Rosen was molded into feminine perfection for the queen's agenda of a New Dawn Era.

But the realm of Rothlín is far from perfect.

Hunger and sickness plague the factory-choked land. Aroreh, however, is oblivious to the plight of her people. Or her mother's cruelty. Under an enchantment, she is glamoured to remain awake and only see a prospering realm through illusions of beauty and contentment. But all that changes when a rebel sect of faeries releases her mind and unleashes her magic—the power to weave new realities while dreaming.

Now on the run, Aroreh's unspooling world collides with Félip Batten McKinley's, a shadow walker and the surviving heir to the throne of faerie. The very throne the queen maneuvers to annihilate. And why the faeries hid him as a child in the factory slums of Rothlín. But an uprising pushes Félip from the shadows of his life and into the hauntingly beautiful light of Aroreh Rosen—a young woman who represents every nightmare he knows.

Yet only she has the power to awaken a new dream.
