On the day she was born, Maité received a cradle gift from the faery Nahiaa gift that allows her to travel into other worlds while in a dream state.
At seventeen, Maité's mortal world is torn apart with the tragic loss of her parents. Uprooted from the only home she's ever known and isolated in a foreign country, the young woman struggles to make sense of her new life. But the conflict in the realm of Faerie is about to bleed over into Maité's reality. She finds herself in the middle of an ancient struggle between Nahia and the Beautiful One as they furiously clash for control over the realm.
Through her Cradle Gift, Maité uncovers the extent of the Faerie Realm's involvement in her life, and in her quest to come to terms with it, Maité has the help of best friend Emily, and David; a young man whose interest in genetics illuminates possibilities that will change her identity forever.
