She survived. Allianna has survived a demon, the loss of the two main men in her life, and everything she's ever known has changed. The Shadow realm has sworn its fealty to her and she must stand strong as Queen of Shadows, leading the realm back to greatness after the chaos Antzel left behind. There is much work to be done, laws to be upheld, and the arrival of her son to look forward to. But nothing is ever simple, and the threat of Lucifer hangs over her head at every turn. The King of Hell is determined to take Allianna as his Queen, to continue his lineage through her hybrid blood, and nothing will thwart his pursuit of her - or so it seems. Surprises and trials await Allianna on her journey to reign as Queen of Shadows, some with the power to bring her to her knees or send her soaring above the masses. When one of those trials means choosing herself over others, she is willing to sacrifice herself yet again, but when the end comes, there can only be one victor to rule both the Shadow realm and Hell.
