Like the Moon We Rise

De: Annabelle Cormack

Narrado por: Anna Burnett

The deadliest poisons are the sweetest . . .

Auriel has spent her life a prisoner, indentured as a poison maiden and forced to kill for a living with the help of her old friend and accomplice, Faolan Flynn. But she can almost taste freedom – enough to find her mother and hone her witchcraft on her own terms… as long as she keeps it secret. Because magick can only be practiced by those who serve the Empress, or those who wish to burn.

But instead of freedom, Auriel is sold to the enigmatic Ambrose, a young prince intent on revenge. Ambrose has a proposition for Auriel: to free their people from the Empire’s control, she must pretend to be the prophesied all-powerful Khelani, and infiltrate the Empress’s court to bring her down from within.

Thrown into a dangerous scheme, Auriel discovers that Faolan has been in on the plan from the beginning, but she can’t deny their growing attraction as she’s trained to defeat the Empress… nor can she escape the dark presence that has always been within her. The more Auriel learns about Faolan, Ambrose, and the Empress, the less sure she is about who to trust.

Because prophecies can lie, dead gods can rise, and love might just be the most lethal poison of all…
