On the day her sister dies, blind Seraphine meets her own end at her husband’s hand, poisoned with green toxin. The elven king had married her only for the soul-reading power she possessed, while his heart belonged to her sister. Sent back to the day she must choose a spouse, Seraphine now knows the king’s sweetness hides a fatal truth. She turns to Asher, the lord others mock as lame, unaware that he is hiding something of his own. Yet fate is not finished with her: she is not the only one reborn, and buried grudges threaten to rise as a different kind of affection grows.
