Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
In this dark and lush romantic fantasy, two women raised as pawns in a corrupt world must join forces with unlikely allies to harness their fury and break the cycle of violence-the adult debut from New York Times bestselling author Roseanne A. Brown.

Every generation has a Godsgift: a young woman born possessing the blood of the goddess of spring, destined to fend off a devastating eternal winter. But when Eulia, this generation's chosen one, realizes she's nothing more than a sacrificial lamb, she rejects her fate and flees with a mysterious warlock whose magic she was raised to abhor.

Left behind is Cleio, Eulia's handmaiden, who is forced to take her place as a false Godsgift. This new position of power opens doors that have always been closed to her, and, with the support of a soldier with secrets of his own, she seizes the chance to root out corruption from within.

With a sisterhood forged in fire, these two women will not sit idly by as their fates are decided for them. Power is their destiny. Freedom is their right. And by divine rage, they will claim what is theirs.
