Summary
Ten years ago, Kaela was torn away from her home, hidden away for a future that was never guaranteed. Now, that future has come calling.
Tyrrendor has won its freedom, but the fight is far from over. To secure the kingdom's stability, its Assembly demands Kaela uphold a decades old contract binding her to Xaden Riorson— former rebel, warrior, and now, the reluctant king of Tyrrendor. But Xaden is grieving, the weight of his crown heavy, and the scars of war have turned childhood friendships into distant memories.
She was trained for politics, not battle. He was forged in war, not courtly games.
And Navarre is watching, waiting for them to fail.
Oh, and she may or may not have accidentally befriended his dragon.
Becoming queen was no longer part of the plan. But neither was running into a dragon in the clearing and offering it a flower crown.
