About the book: year / In a ruthless competition of physical and magical strength, attraction to the enemy can be your greatest weakness. I am Kaylin from the Court of Shadows, banished to the human world in my youth for the murder of a faerie prince. But having learned that my homeland is in danger, I agree to a deal. The test of thorns will determine the champion who will save our world from a terrible plague. The winner will receive fame and a fortune. I don't care about money or fame at all, my goal is to regain freedom. If I win, the sentence will be overturned. And I'm going to win at any cost. But I didn't take into account that one of my opponents would be Reveln. We have... a difficult past. And now, ten years later, he's even sexier than I remember. Oh yes, and he also hates me. Only one of us can win, and Rev will do everything possible to make sure I don’t come out of this trial alive. Because ten years ago I killed his brother. And Rev hasn’t forgotten anything.
