Alexander Vale has lived for a thousand years. He has seen the human race fall prey to the immortals and now, as a member of the ruling Archon class, he is responsible for his own people- both the older and more powerful Archontes as well as the hunger-driven Subalterns- and the mortal Esnes. The Law is his safety; he helped create the ruling class hundreds of years ago to quell revolt and provide a measure of calm in a world that was ravaged by cruelty and harsh conditions. Once the Old Lands were made docile, he and those like him turned to the New Lands, and he eventually settled himself as the Commissioner of the North Eastern Dominion. The Law was established: the Esnes were forced into obedience, the Subalterns (for the most part) were subdued, and the Archontes were firmly in control. There have been minor rebellions, but, since the Great Rebellion (twenty-five years ago), there has been a relative peace. Stumbling upon an Esne after dark, his entire life is turned on end and he sees not only who he has been but who he is at his core. In a story that combines the dystopian with paranormal romance, Vale crafts a psychological tale that pits ego against soul with heartbreaking consequences.

Industry Reviews

"What a brilliant story!... I was sucked right in and didn't want to put it down. The imagination and world building is phenomenal and the writing flows effortlessly. I am in awe of this writer's talent!... Simply put: this book is a beautiful work of writing and I recommend highly!" -Bookish Pops Reviews

"My favorite thing about this book is reading from different points of view and seeing how an opinion one has, affects the way the other thinks. The more I read from the characters, the more I liked them. It talks about important and relevant topics such as the way you treat others and equality. It was just very well done and makes me question the world we live in today." -Danna Gonzalez, Bookish Recs

"I loved this book. Mia Michele has created an original and wonderfully realized world that sucked me in and made me want to learn everything about the politics, history and social issues... I felt invested... The story kept me interested until the end." -Mira Reads Books

"I am speechless. Ms. Michele created a unique, dystopian page turner with sharp, smart, and sexy characters that are so addicting, it's almost impossible to pull yourself away from... The narrative is intoxicating... Both the hero and heroine are complex, charismatic, and compelling... You will not be disappointed... You may end up with an aching book-hangover and a longing for more." -Kat M. Pagan
