Val has quite literally not been the same since she broke up with her elven royalty ex. And yes, that was elven. Val lives in a world full of so-called "supernatural" beings, although humans don't know that one. Val has been sick for a month now, and when she finally goes to the doc to see what it is, she is stunned almost to the point of stupidity. Now, she just has to convince her ex, Jace, that what's afflicting her is really what it is, and will change their lives forever. Alas, crap hits the fan, and Val and Jace must deal with the repercussions of their former relationship, even if it seems that Jace may want to refurbish his relationship with Val. Although Val was completely broken up over Jace, there may be new romance somewhere in her future that doesn't have 'elf prince' written on it.
