The line between monster, man, and god is as invisible as the wind and as destructive as a storm.

In the war-torn world of Sunverobe , faith is as fierce as the four monstrous storms that tear the land apart. And in Carthas Prime, a suffocating city protected by a shimmering divine shield, the afterlife matters more than life itself.

For Reverend Princess Berri Toulett, survival is a sacrifice. The last of a holy bloodline, she gives her body, her dreams, and her freedom to keep the Prismatic Shield alive and her people safe. Her destiny has never been her own.

On the other side of the holy war, Tiro Straith, a charismatic soldier who wields the storm’s magic as his own, finds his acts of reckless heroism have gotten him pegged as his people’s holy savior. He is plagued by nightmares of a terrible future and dreams of a woman he loves…but has never met. Determined to end the war before prophecy consumes them all, Tiro attempts one final act of defiance. He infiltrates Carthas Prime to assassinate the Reverend Princess.

Until he realizes she’s the girl from his dreams.

So he does the unthinkable.

He kidnaps her.

Thrown into the outside world for the first time, Berri discovers a land more dangerous—and more breathtaking—than she ever imagined. Enemies suddenly become unlikely allies as Tiro and Berri hatch a plan to free themselves from prophecy and save both their people. But can either trust the savior of their enemy? 

As Berri and Tiro cross firestorms, deserts crawling with sand sharks, blizzards that twist the mind, and lightning-scoured rainforests, they uncover truths buried in the storms themselves…and they begin to fall for the one person who could destroy everything they love.

Two chosen ones on opposite sides of a holy war. To save their people, Berri and Tiro must decide whether to obey divine will—or betray it and risk bringing their entire world to its knees.
