The Scarlet VeilThe Scarlet Veil

"Člie Tremblay has always been a good girl: kind and beautiful, a daughter of whom every parent would be proud. She surprises the entire kingdom when she defies tradition to become the first huntswoman--including her new captain and fianč, Jean Luc, who rules the huntsmen with an iron fist. He isn't the only one concerned for Člie's safety, however. Though her friends try to protect her from the horrors of her past, mysterious whispers still haunt her, and a new evil is rising in Belterra--leaving bodies in its wake, each one drained of blood. Determined to prove herself in her new role, Člie tracks the killer to the lair of Les Éternels--ancient creatures only spoken about in nursery rhymes--and catches the attention of their king, a monster who hides his plans for her behind beautiful words and sharp smiles. Now Člie has new reason to fear the dark because the closer he gets, the more tempted she feels to give in to his dark hunger--and her own."-- Provided by publisher.
