Even as the final Dryad born in a century, she longs to escape her sheltered forest life and taste the freedom of the human world. But, humans are the Dryads’ greatest enemy and threat as they hunt and kill Dryads in search of the three magical Oak hearts that keep the forest alive.

They’ve already stolen two.

After yet another attack by a powerful human corporation leaves her sisters dying, and her realm in ruins, Eryna is saved by the one person she should fear most: Brody Blackwell, the charming and calculating heir to the empire hell-bent on the destruction of her people. Now trapped in the city she once longed for, Eryna learns a dangerous truth—the two missing hearts are hidden within Brody’s family manor. To retrieve them and save her home, she must navigate his glittering, seductive world of power and privilege, deceiving the humans who would kill her in a heartbeat if they learned her truth.

Only the longer she spends under his spell, the harder it is to see him as the enemy, and not a boy drowning in secrets of his own…and the harder it is to remember which heart she’s supposed to protect, hers or the forest.
