In the background on contemporary New York City, there exists a world beyond this world. This is a world where fantastic creatures exist, where the true power behind the thrones manipulate world governments to their own liking. It is a world as enchanting as it is terrifying, ruled by passion, greed, vengeance, and the most basic human emotions. Welcome to the Shadow Kingdom Scarlett Whitmore is an unassuming, eighteen-year-old college student. Everything about her life is decidedly mundane, except for one aspect - she has the supernatural ability to control ice and water. She has lived with this secret ability her entire life, unaware of its origins or meaning. All that changes the day that she meets Adrian Shang. He is tall, dark, handsome, and like her, supernatural. Adrian reveals that Scarlett is a member of the Shadow Kingdom, a secret civilization of witches and warlocks that has co-existed with humanity for millennia. Scarlett is thrust into a world of conspiracy, betrayal, and political intrigue, and she must quickly learn how to navigate her way in this mesmerizing new world. She quickly discovers that everyone in the Shadow Kingdom wants something from her... and they will stop at nothing to get what they want. Forces of love and hate, virtue and vice, honour and wrath all collide, bringing the mysterious Shadow Kingdom to light.
