When I walked away on bare feet, broken and forgotten, I swore I was done begging for a touch that came with ice. Ten years later, I am no longer his quiet Luna. I am Chief Doctor Courtney—a woman of wealth, power, and untouchable authority, running

“I'll go north with Aria. You four can stay here.” All four of them moved around her at once.

What good would calling Frostland do now?” “But what about Aria?” Lyra's shoulders shook as she cried. “She'll be all alone so far away.

"Gina, I expected you to say something about hoping we'd see Asher." "Because we won't." Gina twirled her fork in the pasta. "Especially this week."
