The scintillating sequel to Immortal Longings finds Calla and Anton forced to band together to prevent anarchy from seizing the kingdom.
The games are over. Let chaos reign. Power plays, spilled blood, and romance abound in this thrilling sequel to the New York Times and #1 Sunday Times bestseller Immortal Longings, inspired by Shakespeare's Antony and Cleopatra.
Calla Tuoleimi has done the impossible. Against all odds, she won San-Er's bloody games and eliminated her tyrant uncle, King Kasa - but at unimaginable cost. Now she serves as royal advisor to the newly crowned King August.
Only Calla knows it isn't really him.
In a desperate feat, Anton took over Anton's body to survive, and now he has no intention of giving it up. But when his first love awakens from a years-long coma and reveals a secret that threatens the monarchy, chaos erupts.
As tensions come to a boiling point, Calla and Anton must set their conflicts aside and head to the kingdom's far reaches to prevent anarchy . . . even if their empire might be better off burning.
