Dark Moon Rising

The Dark Moon Rises, And With It, Ancient Magic That Threatens To Tear The World Apart. House Deyron's shame has shadowed Helio since birth. As ward to House Sarras--the dynasty that deposed his family from the throne of Ephemer—he's learned to swallow his pride and do his duty. But when the new king has Helio's closest friend executed and marks him for death, survival means flight into a realm he doesn’t recognize. Trouble stirs in the East. The Penumbran emperor marches north to crush a dangerous uprising, leaving power-hungry rivals eyeing his Dragon Throne. Yu Zi Mei is the only daughter of peasant farmers of the Green River. When forced into a nightmare marriage too young, her desperate flight leads her into ancient shadows—where a curse becomes prophesy.
