As Rantha’s Chosen, Mira wants nothing more than to join the ranks of her goddess’s pleasure-givers. But a rival force want nothing more than to ruin Mira before she can give her virginity to a worthy recipient in Rangtha’s name. His name? Sylith, and his jealous zeal knows no bounds.

Shielded by the guiding dedication of her mentors and protected by her lovers-in-waiting, Mira knows nothing of Sylith’s threatening designs. She only knows that all of Nameda – and indeed people from throughout Ulain – vie to become her recipient, heaping all manner of wealthy gifts upon her to catch her attention.

Yet it is a simple gift – a mere book – that decides it for Mira. And it is the good Lord Edric who earns her favor. But when Mira selects him as her recipient, the wicked Sylith initiates a plan so devastating that it could ruin everything for Mira.

Will her lovers-in-waiting thwart Sylith’s impending dangers? Will her mentors pull Mira from harm’s way? Can Mira’s fondest desire – to serve her goddess as a revered pleasure-giver – come true? Or will Sylith’s cruel jealousy win out and damn Mira to a fate more ruinous than death itself?
