Arwen Valondale never expected to be the brave one, offering her life to save her brother’s. Now she’s been taken prisoner by the most dangerous kingdom on the continent, and made to use her rare magical abilities to heal the soldiers of the vicious Onyx King.
Arwen knows better than to face the ancient, wicked woods that surround the castle on her own, which means working with a fellow prisoner might be her only path to freedom. Unfortunately, he’s as infuriating as he is cunning—and seems to take twisted pleasure in playing on Arwen’s deepest fears.
But here in Onyx Kingdom, trust is a luxury she can’t afford.
To make it out of enemy territory, she'll have to navigate back-stabbing royals, dark magic, and dangerous beasts. But untold power lies inside Arwen, dormant and waiting for a spark. If she can harness it, she just might be able to escape with her life—and hopefully, her heart.

I loved this book. The first line hooked me in and made me want to read more. I also read it without reading the description, based off the Fantasy Fangirls Book Club (and she has an appearance near me soon that I wanted to determine if I wanted to go). A Dawn of Onyx is fast paced and fun, if sometimes a little predictable. But I was also wondering what would happen next. Arwen is a fun heroine and Kane is a broody dark haired King. I love the way they met and the course of their relationship!
I'm so excited to see how Arwen's adventure continues and see her grow into her powers and destiny! Golden has created a fun world that has more to discover in the next couple of books.
