Once she meets Hawker, the scary man who turns out to be her real dad, her life takes an unexpected turn. She finds out about a heritage she never knew she had, and secrets from the past are uncovered as she fights to save her part of the world from destruction. And then there's Mac, with his green eyes and a soft voice that flows through her like sweet honey.
