Eighteen-year-old Sloane is a deadly fighter, but she is about to meet her match, and he's not exactly human... Sloane thought she could solve any problem with a blade-that is until she is kidnapped and taken through a shimmering rift to a strange world covered in snow. The frozen land she finds herself in is protected by a mysterious race of warriors and haunted by evil, ancient creatures that lurk in the shadows. Her first instinct is to fight for her freedom, but her skills with a sword are useless in helping her escape from the cold and distant prince who holds her prisoner. Her only hope is to gain his trust. The problem is, he's just as stubborn as she is and refuses to let her go. Will she succeed in escaping? Or will she find a reason to stay?
