The Warrior Queen, Shahzar, journeys to the forestlands, seeking the descendent of the last Shan-Sei priest. She expects to find a mage-warrior, an elementalist able to defend her city and destroy her enemies. Instead, she discovers a powerful healer, a gentle man with an infectious smile who warms her cold heart. She must choose between Kaladia, the city she rules, where her son and his father reside, or this fair-skinned stranger called Roderick Belshing whose ties to magic call to her. "This continuation of Shahzara"s story is a fantastic journey out of the desert and into the forestlands. The life and emotions of each character are vividly described and setting the scene is one of Ms. Rabiyah's many talents...This second installment is a tantalizing step in the life of Shahzar and her people. I will be anxiously awaiting Book Three." Lototy-Reviewer for Coffee Time Romance
