In a realm where toxic mist sweeps the lands and magic is forbidden, all Bleak wants is a cure for her power.
Still grieving the death of her guardian and dangerously self-medicating with alcohol, Bleak is snatched from her home by the Commander of the King’s Army, and summoned to the capital. But the king isn’t the only one interested in Bleak's powers.
The leader of an infamous society of warriors, the Valia Kindred, lays claim to her as well, and Bleak finds herself in the middle of a much bigger battle than she anticipated.

I’ve had many memorable experiences but I’ll mention just one. While biking the Glacier Parkway in Alaska, I was chased by a mama bear. Thankfully, I was going downhill at the time and got away. 🙂
Hmmm….most memorable travel experience…I told Mr Wonderful, when we started to get serious, the only way I would ever get married is if I went to Hawaii. So…we did, but we didn’t get married until a few years later. 🙂

Hmmm. I haven’t done all that much traveling, but I guess going on a cruise to Mexico.
This looks incredible. Definitely will be adding it to my Goodreads tbr list. ^_^
My most memorable travel experience is that of my trip to California going from LA to San Fran, then back to Orange County.
My most memorable traveling experience was visiting the Aran Islands in Ireland
