Book description
Once there were ten. Ten goddess-touched girls were born. Each was blessed--or cursed--with a unique power that set them apart. As part of an ancient ritual called the Culling, they were supposed to fight to the death in the arena until only one survived. That girl would marry the prince and ascend to the throne. Now only four girls remain. Power in her blood. Monroe Benson is one of the lucky ones. With fire at her fingertips, she survived the arena and the intrigues of the palace. Now she's turned her back on her destiny, choosing to throw in her lot with the rebellion seeking to overturn the Erydian rulers. Monroe has never wanted the throne. She knows that her future lies elsewhere, but first she'll have to convince the rebels to believe her. A traitorous heart. Monroe thought Cohen was one of the few good things about the Culling. She believed that he would have made a good ruler, but that doesn't mean that she wanted to sit beside him on the throne. And now, she finds herself drawn to a rebel leader. A man with secrets of his own. In the end, Monroe will have to trust in more than her power or even her heart if she's to forge her own path and find her freedom.
