Exiled by the very king who crowned her, Jude Duarte finds herself adrift in the mortal world, a queen with no kingdom. Stripped of her power and title by Cardan, the Wicked King she both loathes and loves, she now navigates a mundane existence of reality TV and odd jobs, even confronting a cannibalistic faerie.

This return forces her to confront Cardan, the king who betrayed her, and the complicated, undeniable feelings that still linger between them. As a dark, ancient curse threatens to unravel the fabric of the Faerie world, Jude, a mere mortal, must embrace her destiny to become the first mortal Queen of Faerie. She must break the curse and restore balance, or risk the annihilation of everything she holds dear, all while navigating the political intrigues and deadly magic of the High Court.
