In a kingdom called the Dells exist monsters—gorgeous and highly-skilled versions of a variety of animals. Fire is the last human monster, with unimaginable beauty and the ability to control the minds of those around her. Fire is so beautiful that she must disguise herself and conceal her hair to avoid both attacks by other monsters and the attention of men. Although she prefers privacy, Fire is pulled into the inevitable war brewing in the Dells. Young King Nash wants her special skill on his side of the battle, just as her father supported his father, but Fire knows the two were the most feared men in all of the Dells. The ill-effects of her father’s abuse of his power are still affecting Fire—the King’s brother, Brigan, doesn’t trust Fire and makes no secret about it. Will she use her skills to help? And why are Fire and Brigan so drawn to each other, in spite of his distrust?
