An Oath of Blood and Secrets: Book Two, She Will Rise

By C.A. Masterson

Amina Emezi readies for the day when she leaves her parents’ home to live on her own, dependent upon no one else in the Dregs.
As a Favored One in The Blessed Heights, Tayari Thorne’s life is mapped out for her. Before the final ceremony, she’s pushed over the mountain to the Dregs.
After Mina rescues Tayari, they become sisters through a blood oath. Rather than a lifetime of service to whichever man bids the most for her, Tayari alone will decide her course.
When Commander Zed Wolfram kidnaps Mina to the Heights, she loses her freedom, and her place in the world.
Now outcasts in the other’s world, can Mina and Tayari learn to navigate their strange new worlds? Can they survive long enough to rescue each other again?
