In Brodi Ashton's breathtaking sequel to Everneath--about which New York Times bestselling author Ally Condie said, ""Ashton's lovely storytelling and strong-on-her-own-terms main character set this one apart. Wonderful!""--Nikki must travel through the underworld to be reunited with the love of her life. Ever since Nikki Beckett watched as her boyfriend, Jack, sacrificed himself to save her, taking her place in the dark Tunnels of the Everneath for eternity, she's been living a borrowed life. Desperate for answers, Nikki turns to Cole, the immortal bad boy who wants to make her his queen--and the one person least likely to help. But his heart has been touched by everything about Nikki, and he agrees to help in the only way he can: by taking her to the Everneath himself.
