    Summary

    A millennia after the Deunification of Navarre, the war that splintered the Continent is little more than a dusty, half-forgotten memory. Magic is fading; dragons are few and far between; and Violet's problems are decidedly first-world. While the dragon riders of old worried about death lurking around every corner, her biggest worry is whether she'll get into the masters program of her choice. So when an infuriating, handsome man steals her spot at a coffee shop while she's in the bathroom, she doesn't expect that the meeting is far more than mere coincidence.

    But Xaden's and Violet's feud over the best spot at the coffee shop evolves into something deeper, and as the years pass, Violet's dreams begin showing her terrifying scenes of war and loss that she struggles to forget about when she awakens, and the dreams feel more and more familiar with every passing night.

    Summary

    Violet Sorrengail just wants to survive her first summer back at Aretia in nearly two years.

    Older now, with new fears and new grief, she worries how she'll find her way back. But when she returns, the mountain is the same, with its cool, fresh air. The cabins still have graffiti-covered rafters and creaky floors. And there is Xaden Riorson, still shooting her glares and wicked grins from across the dining hall.

    ***

    Xaden's frozen, his gaze midnight, flickering over my loose, mused hair. His eyes snag on the beginnings of a braid. I huff, shooting him a look and dropping the strands I’ve been trying to weave again. “Today it's just not cooperating.”

    His smile is sly as he meets my gaze in the mirror. “Let me.” I flash a disbelieving look as he steps forward, hands wide in an appeasing gesture. “I lived with Sloane for nearly a decade. I can French braid, or Dutch if you’d prefer.” He quirks his brow at me in our reflections, and truly, how is this man allowed to exist?
