Shards of Hope
The “smoldering heat, epic romance, and awesome action” of Nalini Singh’s New York Times bestselling series continues as two Arrows find themselves caught in a chilling conspiracy that spans all three races...
Awakening wounded in a darkened cell, their psychic abilities blocked, Aden and Zaira know they must escape. But when the lethal soldiers break free from their mysterious prison, they find themselves in a harsh, inhospitable landscape far from civilization. Their only hope for survival is to make it to the hidden home of a predatory changeling pack that doesn’t welcome outsiders.
And they must survive. A shadowy enemy has put a target on the back of the Arrow squad, an enemy that cannot be permitted to succeed in its deadly campaign. Aden will cross any line to keep his people safe for this new future, where even an assassin might have hope of a life beyond blood and death and pain. Zaira has no such hope. She knows she’s too damaged to return from the abyss. Her driving goal is to protect Aden, protect the only person who has ever come back for her no matter what.
This time, even Aden’s passionate determination may not be enough — because the emotionless chill of Silence existed for a reason. For the violent, and the insane, and the irreparably broken... like Zaira.

Nalini Singh
When Nalini Singh writes, the impossible becomes intimate. In her worlds, psychic networks unravel under the pressure of suppressed desire, angels rule cities from the skies, and love—bold, dangerous, transformative—is never just a subplot. A master of genre fusion, Singh doesn’t simply blend paranormal romance with urban fantasy; she reinvents what those genres can do, infusing them with emotional intensity and social complexity that linger long after the final page.
Born in Suva, Fiji, and raised in New Zealand, Singh grew up straddling cultures, languages, and landscapes—an experience that left its mark on her imagination. Before becoming a full-time author, she taught English in Japan, a chapter of her life that gave her a deep appreciation for global storytelling traditions and a sense of discipline that now anchors her prolific writing career. That balance between immersive world-building and narrative control defines much of her work.
