I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

When Yeeran is banished after making a terrible mistake in the Elven army, she stumbles upon a mysterious land with strange people with pointed ears and teeth, but the fae haven't been seen for a millennium. Torn between her loyalty to her elven homeland and her heart, Yeeran has a lot to learn about the mysterious fae. 

This is a wonderful romantic fantasy story, with intricate worldbuilding and complex and original characters. El-Arifi is truly cementing herself as one of today's great fantasy writers. 

Perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas!
