Synopsis:


Sorrow all but rules the Court of Tears, in a land gripped by perpetual grief, forever mourning her brother who died just days before Sorrow was born. By day she governs in place of her father, by night she seeks secret solace in the arms of the boy she's loved since childhood. But when her brother is seemingly found alive, and intent on taking control, Sorrow has to choose whether to step aside for a stranger who might not be who he claims to be, or embark on a power struggle for a position she never really wanted.
Review:

This was brilliant! It was a gripping story full of mystery, intrigue and adventure. Characters were well developed and interesting, with some mystery still remaining. The descriptions were so well done and I felt like I could imagine the world like I was part of it. Melinda Salisbury's writing style is clear and beautiful. I cannot wait for the next one!

I gave this book 5 out of 5 stars.
