Publisher's Synopsis
Cast aside by her mother, tormented (literally) by her father, feared by humans, and despised by most of her own kind, Aella is determined not to care - not to care what they think, not to care if they like her, not to care about anything or anyone. Just so long as no one tries to touch her or imprison her again, Aella couldn't care less.
Until... he pulled an arrow from Aella's back and kissed her cheek.
Until... she carried Aella home and stood between her and a giant spider. And a rioting mob.
Until... they came to Aella looking for help.
Aella, daughter of demon and witch, must find herself once again, as she forges her own route to a destiny she doesn't want to believe. At first a hero in name alone, Aella soon discovers she has the strength and the heart to control her demonic lineage and truly assume the mantle of HERO. In her struggle, she also finds something even more valuable - friendship, as the youthful and spirited Amelia isn't just a friend worth dying for - she's Aella's true "sword sister" and worth living for.
