Shadows are devouring Neveraj, my magical homeland. To save it, I must replenish the Pixie by facing trials of my past, present, and future-but I've spent centuries avoiding adulthood in this ageless paradise. Now I need help, and I'm stuck with Wyshawn Darl of all people. He's uptight, judgmental, and represents everything I've been running from. Just my luck to be trapped with someone who treats fun like a communicable disease.

I've watched Piper charm everyone but me for years, collecting lovers while I wait in the wings, invisible. Behind my serious exterior is someone who's been desperately hoping she'd notice what's been right in front of her all along. Yes, she's impulsive and wrapped in red flags, but I'd risk everything for a chance with her wild spirit. As her world faces danger, maybe she'll finally see what I'm offering-not just help, but my heart, completely and without conditions.
