Jane Doe is a girl with a past she can't remember, a past she isn't sure she wants to remember. She has no name, no family, and no recognizable DNA. But all that changes one day when her new foster parents transform into monsters and a vaguely familiar man in shining armor rescues her. In one day, she's plunged into the politics, wars, legends and prophecies of the Fae World, a world that feels like home. As memories began to reveal themselves, her mysterious past becomes more and more cryptic as the darkness within is awakened and the Dark Warrior arises. In the midst of external wars between the good and bad, Light and Dark, an internal war rages between the person Jane is now and the person she once was. A tale of intrigue, love, conflict and adventure brought to life with imagination - a tale you won't want to miss.
