You can never escape your past.

And Zach and Luke Calem are tired of running. With Blackheart in the rearview, they arrive at their new home with The Family in Northern Ireland.

Luke tries to stay away from the queen but finds it an impossible task. Leveraging his influence, he keeps the people closest to him safe, yet struggles to reconcile the person he desires to be with the role he must evolve into. Meanwhile, Zach will do anything to keep his brother from falling apart—except confront his own inner demons. Loyalty to Luke is questioned following a complicated relationship with the queen, and the twins grapple with their strengthening blood bond.

In the wake of Ascension, their bond is tested as The Family closes in on fulfilling prophecy. Will Zach and Luke remain true to themselves and each other, or will fate prove stronger than brotherly blood?
