I am his joy.The shadow fae snatched me from my world to serve as a Joy Vessel in the court of their queen. But all my joy has long been stolen by the man I once loved. My husband didn’t kill me, but he destroyed so many pieces of me that it feels like there’s nothing left, like I’m dead inside.

A sad, somber Joy Vessel is useless, yet the fae of the queen’s court believe a Joy Guardian can ‘fix’ me.

What they don’t know is that Kurai is hiding a dangerous secret, one that, if revealed, would lead to his execution. To him, I’m a threat and my kind has no place in the Alveari Kingdom. His mission is to rid his world of us, even if it means killing us all.

He was raised to see me as his sin, but does he have the wisdom to recognize me as his blessing?
