On Wicked Ground
by Sharon Kay
The lost memories of a thief...
The first twelve years of Alina's life are a black void. An accomplished thief, she uses her cloaking ability to pick pockets as well as stage elaborate heists. Digging deeper into her past sets off a chain of events that puts her, and the family she has just discovered, in the sights of their worst enemy.
...and the scarred heart of a guardian...
In secret, Lash Watcher Caine plots vengeance for the destruction of everything he loved. Branded by loss, he longs to find his one true mate, knowing that only with her will his heart fully heal. When his brief meeting with Alina is interrupted by her elaborate evade-and-escape plan, he knows there is more to her than meets his watchful eyes. But nothing can prepare him for the lethal power of her mind.
...collide at the fault line of destiny.
A brilliant villain with a vicious and loyal army behind her can only be stopped by one force: the combined power of four women who command the elements. Alina, with her newly-discovered affinity to the earth, becomes the linchpin to halting the desecration of their world. Thrown into a battle plan and a new family, she finds joy in in the quiet strength of Caine's arms. But when the secrets to her past are revealed, she learns a terrible price has been paid in advance. The very magic that allowed her to live to fulfill a prophecy will forever deny her heart's deepest wish.
Alina. We met her briefly in the last book and now we get to see where she really came from and who it is that she is a Solsti. As the war gears up for the final battle it's a race to unite the four Solsti to fight against evil.
Caine he knew there was something special about her when they literally ran into each other the first time. So seeing her again he's not gonna let her go that easily, and when she's injured he brings her to the one place he knows she'll get the best care. When he wasn't expecting was the discovery of who she was.
As the two become closer while preparing for war, shocking news is learned by Alina and it could mean the end of their relationship before it ever really started.
In this conclusion to the series we see it all come together and some of the curious things we didn't understand throughout we finally figure out. I loved seeing how it all ended, although I'm very excited about the spin off series that's to come!
