Melissa Marr, Melissa Horn - One Blood Ruby (Seven Black Diamonds #2) lyrics

Now that Lilywhite Abernathy is the
Heir to the Hidden Lands
Everything is about to change

The Queen of Blood and Rage wants Lily to
Help broker peace with the human world
But Lily knows that harmony won’t come easily
After decades of waging war on
The humans, who cost the
Queen her firstborn daughter
The fae are struggling to accept
Lily, a half human monarch and the humans
While no match against faery affinities
Will hardly agree to the
Queen’s détente without resistance

Lily wants to be a fair ruler but fears
Having to abandon the life she’s known to
Do so now that she and Creed are more
Than just fellow Black
Diamonds operatives for
The queen her priorities have
Shifted but her worries
About assuming the throne are derailed when
It becomes clear that someone or some fae
Is masterminding violent attacks
To discourage peace

In this follow-up to Melissa
Marr’s Seven Black Diamonds
Lily and her friends are forced to
Reckon with the truth of their own parentage
And to protect one of their own
No matter what or who comes between them
