Description

'I loved the book!! Fantastic ending to a fantastic series' Jodi Picoult

When the gods make the rules, the players must choose: sacrifice their love to save the world ... or choose love and let it burn?

Six months after saving their island from de struction and almost losing Dante, Alessa is ready to live happily ever after with her for mer bodyguard. But Dante can't rest, haunted by a conviction that the gods aren't finished with them yet. And without his powers, the next kiss from Alessa could kill him.

Desperate for answers, Dante enlists Alessa and their friends to find the exiled ghiotte in hopes of restoring his powers and combining forces to create the only army powerful enough to save them all. But Alessa is hiding a deadly consequence of their last fight-a growing darkness that's consuming her mind-and their destination holds more dangers than anyone bargained for. In the mysterious city of the banished, Dante will uncover secrets, lies, and ghosts from his past that force him to ask himself: Which side am I on?

When the gods reveal their final test, Dante and Alessa will be the world's last de fense. But if they are the keys to saving the world, will their love be the price of victory?

This Cursed Light is the heart-pounding sequel to This Vicious Grace - perfect for fans of Stephanie Garber, Leigh Bardugo and Kerri Maniscalco.
