Griffin O’Shea is Forgotten. Maybe it’s a good thing no one outside the prison realm remembers everything he did to earn his place in the dark kingdom. Now that he’s back in the world of the Light Fae, he wants to earn their trust, their loyalty, and that means going after the missing prince and princess of Iskalt, children who call him uncle. It means searching through the human realm for a vanishing village only he can see and a book full of dangerous magic and devious secrets that are better left alone. With a human leading the search, Riona at his side, and a profound lack of magic, the chances of finding anything they seek have never been worse. But the odds won’t stop them. Nor will an illness threatening Griffin’s life. Even if he has to crawl through the portals and face the king of Myrkur on his knees, he cannot stop. Because there are things worse than death. Watching those he loves die before him. Seeing the realms of the fae crumble into dust. Returning to the prison realm means being forgotten once again. Returning without the book could mean certain death. But when all roads point to war, Griffin has no other choice. The king must be defeated. His vast army must be stopped. And this time, Griffin wants to be the hero instead of the villain.
Author

Melissa A. Craven (the "A" stands for Ann—in case you were wondering) was born near Atlanta, Georgia, but moved to Cleveland, Ohio at the age of seventeen. She still thinks of Cleveland as home, so it was only natural for Emerge to take place there. Today, she is back in Atlanta—for some reason she can't seem to stay away from the ungodly heat that makes her long for things like "lake effect snow" and wind that will knock you flat. Melissa decided a long time ago that the “life checklist” everyone else was clutching so tightly in their fists, just wasn’t for her. She does everything backwards because she is weird like that, but then, she is an artist and artists are notoriously "unique" and "quirky." She is an avid student of art and design, and received her Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of West Georgia in 2009. She worked as an interior designer for several years, but she's always thought she might like to be a writer when she grows up. In her spare time, if she has any, she enjoys shopping for derelict furniture she refinishes to exercise the interior design part of her brain.
