To love and protect...across worlds. Eighteen-year-old Faith Stryker is prepared to leap out into the unknown world beyond her home shores of New Zealand to experience life. Only she never expected to encounter Magio, a planet with two warring countries, where its people reach adulthood at eighteen by coming into their strength and prophetic abilities. Only after Faith discovers she's a Halfling—thanks to her warrior father she's never met—does her own skill of forethought develop. Peacio's Prince Davio Loveria is sent to the young Faith Stryker by his grandfather, but not all goes as planned. Davio discovers Faith isn't just a Halfling, she's also his soul-bound mate—an intense relationship he cannot, nor will not, give up. With two wars now waging...one of land and the other of the heart...can the young lovers find their place in the world?
