Available in EPUB, MOBI, and PDF formats. Read on your Kindle, phone, tablet, computer and more

Fresh from exile, Penn is ready for a new beginning—or so he hopes. Rebuilding his place in fae society is a slow process, though, so when one of the most powerful fairies in the Realm offers him a chance to prove himself, he leaps to accept. The task seems easy enough: travel to the mortal world, pick up a half-fae child, and bring her to LaMour Academy. When he arrives, though, the girl is already gone. Thrust in the middle of a missing child investigation with no help from the Realm, Penn sets off on a search of his own—only to discover that ten-year-old Jess is far more clever and determined to stay hidden than he imagined. Every day she’s missing is another day in danger. And as mortal authorities come up empty-handed, Penn might be her only hope. But finding Jess means facing more than mortal dangers—Penn must confront the very parts of himself he left behind long ago. Set seven years before the Daughter of Deception series, this emotional prequel follows Jess and Penn’s earliest encounters with one another. Can be read before, during, or after the main series.
