Summary

THE PERFECT GIFT FOR THE LOVER OF ROMANTASY


THE TIKTOK SENSATION AND SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER THAT'S SOLD OVER A MILLION COPIES


Auren’s story isn’t over yet. She will fly. She will soar.

----

One king caged my body.

Another has caged my mind.

War has broken out between Annwyn and Orea, though that’s not the only battle being waged.

There’s a fight inside me, and it’s one I’m determined to win, no matter how much they try to strip me down and hollow me out.

Yet they’ve forgotten one thing.

The ancient magic of the pair bond.

One can never truly be lost when two souls are already bound.

Because Slade and I? We are connected by more than just fated magic, and we will always find each other.

In any life.

The fae king is trying to destroy me. My heritage. My memory. But what he hasn’t realized is this: gold bends, but stone breaks.

And a Goldfinch does not fall.

It flies.

PRAISE FOR THE PLATED PRISONER SERIES

'This series has stolen my heart, my breath, my regard for anything else. I've never been so immersed in a story before-never read characters that have felt so real. I've cried, laughed, screamed, thrown my kindle across the room, picked it up again, swooned . . . These characters, this WORLD . . . it's everything. Raven has written a story for the ages, destined to go down as one of the epics' Sarah A Parker, author of When The Moon Hatched

'This series is gripping, enticing and darkly romantic. Don’t miss out on this unputdownable read! - Caroline Peckham & Susanne Valenti, authors of Zodiac Academy
