"The time is close, but not yet at hand. When the last of the noble guardians claims his mate, a reign of peace and prosperity will begin."
Logan and Lucas Ferguson have met their Promised Souls. The wise woman's prophecy is now complete. It should be smooth sailing from now on, right? Unfortunately, the twins haven't claimed their mates yet. And it's harder to accomplish when both parties aren't accounted for.
Lucas is M.I.A. No one has seen him, and he didn't leave a very detailed note. Not even Rhona's visions can lock on him. Time is passing and the Kindred have nothing to go on to find him. It doesn't bode well for the Elite Guardian.
To complicate matters, forest fires are sweeping through the Smoky Mountains, threatening to destroy the homes of all who live there. As the Kindred battle to save their homes, they discover they must also venture into a different realm in order to rescue one of their own.
