Confronting Bastien - searching his strangely compelling obsidian-black eyes for answers - Grace is shocked to feel herself begin to change, to show the first signs of the wild magic she so fears.
Grace has always fought the voice inside her that questions whether the law is truly just, but when her closest friend is next on Bastien\'s list, Grace\'s loyalties are tested to the limit.
What becomes of them is hard to say - the Lord of Thorns keeps his secrets close.
The mageborn who submit are collared, then handed over to the King\'s cousin and heir: the elusive Bastien Larelwyn, Lord of Thorns, locked away in his shadowy workshop deep inside the castle.
Now, she trains as an elite soldier tracking down mageborn - those born with an ancient and long-outlawed magic - and destroying them if they don\'t surrender their power to the Crown.
Sold to the Crown in the aftermath of the Last Great War, Grace Marchant has never known her parents. beautiful, but deadly.

The life of an orphan soldier becomes entwined with that of the mysterious heir to the throne, whose very presence draws out the secret magic living inside her: a magic that breaks every law she is duty-bound to uphold...
