This is Book 4 of The Shackled Oath series.

Azaria Sylvenhart has finally found where she belongs.

In Aelvaraan, surrounded by shifters who understand her fire and a father who sees her before he sees her power, Azaria is learning what it means to be wanted. Her magic is growing. Her bond with Quinton has deepened into something ancient and undeniable. For the first time in her life, she is not fighting to prove she deserves to exist.

But the world does not wait for peace to settle.

An ancient threat is stirring. Echoes of a forgotten disaster surface in warnings no one fully understands. And in Dravareth, a king has been watching patiently for a very long time.

Where do I start. I love this series, the characters, their banter, their comradery & the development they've all gone through. This is well written, with a good pace & a great storyline. We've seen Azaria & her team come through many things, seen her come undone, seen her …

I am emotionally attached to these characters. The squad has a special place in my heart.
