Publisher Description
She can battle darkness, but she can’t fight love. Ember Morrow was promised to the knights of Conatus at birth, her life traded for her mother’s. So when the horsemen come for her, soon after her sixteenth birthday, Ember’s not surprised. What does surprise her, though, is the magic the knights wield, the demons they hunt, and the feelings she has for Barrow Hess, the powerful man she serves. When the knights realize that one among them is dabbling in dark magic, danger heightens and Ember must choose whether to follow the path to darkness or to escape the order and pledge her life to destroying her fellow knights. With action, adventure, magic, and tantalizing sensuality, this breathtaking prequel to the Nightshade series delves into the history of Bosque Mar and the origin of the rift between the Keepers and the Searchers.

"I hadn't heard of this author until I happened across this book on a discount shelf at a local Safeway. Needless to say, I am absolutely glad that I bought it. It encompasses many mythical creatures and sticks to the lore pretty well. The story is well written, has romance and lots of action, while not over doing it on either. I read mostly Fae based novels and am glad this has broaden my horizons, cant wait to read the next one."

" Absolutely wonderful. I loved that it was set back in time, this perfectly worded story left me wanting more. Loving Barrow and Ember. Well done Andrea. "

" Prequel to the Nightshade series. Of the books in the series, this was my favorite! Absolutely loved "Rift" and I can't wait to see what happens with Ember and Barrow in "Rise." "

" I'm surprised how much I liked this. The world it created was interesting. I only recognized later that it was a prequel. Oops. "

" Seemed to be a much slower pace than I remember Nightshade being. It was fine and fun, but not the best. And really, the 1-sentence summaries on the front of these books need to be banned: "She can battle darkness, but she can't fight love." Sigh... "

" It took me awhile to get into it but I enjoyed it, now I just have to hope that Rise is just as good. I was completely disappointed by Bloodrose so if Rise doesnt hold up I won't be reading anymore of her books. "

" So very good.....I think Alistair's a giant creep "

" Wow. Just... There are no words to describe this book. I loved diving into the world of mystery and seeing how the world from the nightshade series came to be. I couldn't put the book down and now I'm aching to go out and buy the next book in this incredible prequel series!! :) "

" This was such an amazing read. Love the triangle between Alistair, Ember and Barrow. I would have never guessed who would have turned bad!! Anxiously awaiting Rise! "

" Very well written! Addicting! Great series! "
— Kaleigh, 7/1/2013 -
" not a lot happening here... a long book that only covers about 3 weeks, plot barely unfolds before you hit the cliff hanger end... I found myself nervous and anxious by about 2/3 of the way through and it failed to be resolved - definitely not up to par with her first series... "
— Lindy, 3/3/2013 -
" i loved this as much as the main series that this is a prequel to. the relationship between ember and barrow remind me of the relationship between rose and dimitri from vampire academy which made me love the book even more. ^_^ "
— Bibliophile, 10/8/2012 -
