DAUGHTER OF DESTINY by REBECCA PARCHA

MAGIC IS ITS OWN ENTITY. IT CAN BE AS CRUEL AS IT IS HELPFUL.

Tate Aaralyn never thought she'd find herself in the Untish Embassy. A place she thought was a myth is, in fact, real. As Tate learns the nuances of the Untish ways, she must unlock her true form and confront her past-all while being hunted.

More than that, she must choose whether she wants the bond she shares with the mysterious male-Aether-and if he can be fully trusted. With half-truths, shades of grey, and a history she can only hope to understand, Tate finds herself fighting against time and fate herself. Her heart and fate hang in the balance, and she must find the strength to confront the truth and the price it demands.

She has sworn vengeance, and she will have it.

Chance Dale's worst nightmare strides on two feet and, sometimes, crawls on four: Seethings. Beasts made of dark magic and vile intentions. Worse still, those closest to him are responsible for their creation. For the demolition of good.

When Chance finds himself developing new powers, he must choose between protecting his country or maintaining his integrity. Every dark step he takes to defend the Glenn eats at his soul-will he survive transforming into the weapon his country needs?

He must choose his path and determine if it truly takes a monster to defeat a monster.

Aether Brychan is one of the most powerful Untish warriors at the Embassy. He never saw himself falling for a recruit, never would've thought he'd find his match and equal in every way. And yet, he has.

As he and Tate find themselves in the heart of the Embassy, danger draws closer, and desperate attempts to maintain power threatens the bond they share. He will not fail her; he can't.

He will stop at nothing to protect Tate, even if that means sacrificing her trust in him.
