Loyalty. Magic. Ambition. Which will triumph? Returned to Temari Hall after her abduction, Lira's ultimate ambition remains unchanged. Destroy Underground and leverage that victory to rise up the ranks of the Mage Council. Make them all forget about the Darkmage and remember her instead. To do that, she must win back the trust of Underground while secretly spying on them for the Mage Council. Exposure would mean her death. But the arrival of Ahrin Vensis at Temari Hall places Lira in greater danger than ever before. The Darkhand's agenda is unknown, and she hides secrets that could undo everything Lira is working towards. Winning the Darkhand to her side would guarantee victory, but to do that Lira will need to betray those who offer a gift she's always yearned for … acceptance and friendship. Can she successfully walk the line between ambition and loyalty, or will Lira's hunger for danger leave her standing amidst the ashes of all her hopes? The second book in Heir to the Darkmage is filled with grey heroines, magical monsters, unlikely friends, and slow burn f/f romance. Perfect for fans of Christopher Mitchell, Jada Fisher, and DK Holmberg.

Lira will be faced with an enemy more powerful than she could ever have imagined. To survive, the heir to the Darkmage will be faced with a choice.

Love drives her. Magic fuels her. But vengeance always has a price. To save Ahrin Vensis, Lira Astor has agreed to take control of the Mage Council and use that power to subdue the kingdoms on behalf of Lucinda and the Seven.

Lucinda is the most daunting adversary she's ever faced, and the task before her seems impossible. But Lira is determined to win this time. To succeed, she's going to have to pull off a con of epic proportions, and all without the help of her Darkhand. But Lira has learned. She has allies now. Friends even. Lira Astor doesn't give up. And she doesn't lie down. She's going to beat them all. Or she's going to die trying. The final book in Heir to the Darkmage is filled with magical battles, dark monsters, unlikely friends, and slow burn f/f romance.
