But when ÌDmi's misplaced trust costs her mother's life, survival gives way to vengeance. She bides her time until the devious Lord Ekwensi grants her the perfect opportunity, kidnap the Aje prince, Jonas, and bargain with his life to save the remaining Oluso. With the help of her reckless childhood friend Colin, ÌDmi succeeds, but discovers that she and Jonas share more than deadly secrets; every moment tangles them further into a forbidden, unmistakable attraction, much to Colin's, and ÌDmi's, distress. The kidnapping is now a joint mission: to return to the King, help get Lord Ekwensi on the council, and bolster the voice of the Oluso in a system designed to silence them. But the way is dangerous, ÌDmi's magic is growing yet uncertain, and it's not clear if she can trust the two men at her side. 541 $d 20230810. 650 $a Magic $v Fiction. 650 $a Imaginary places $v Fiction. 650 $a Imaginary wars and battles $v Fiction. 650 $a Revolutions $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Fantasy fiction. 655 7 $a Novels. 830 $a Tainted blood duology ; $v 1. 941 $a 14 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20240509012059.0 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409044806.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20240125011413.0 952 $l FYPI314 $d 20231202012136.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20231110010117.0 952 $l KJPF566 $d 20231109010543.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20231004010353.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20231003012024.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20230913010330.0 952 $l BJPD251 $d 20230908010410.0 952 $l XBPE737 $d 20230902015154.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20230902011326.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20230902010725.0 952 $l DBPE173 $d 20230816010122.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=35E68BB43BFA11EEA8F9593728ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
