Prince Tredan thought he'd buried his heart on the battlefield, along with the memory of his brother's bride. But when tragedy calls him home to claim Warcton's crown, he finds some ghosts refuse to stay buried. Queen Idelia has weathered fifteen years of whispers and scorn, carrying the weight of a kingdom's disappointment on her shoulders. Now, with her husband's death, she's ready to retreat into obscurity—until Tredan's return awakens something she thought long dead. As political intrigue threatens to tear the kingdom apart, Tredan and Idelia find themselves drawn together by the very forces conspiring to destroy them. But with enemies at every turn and secrets darker than the dungeons beneath the castle, their growing feelings could be their salvation... or their doom. Some say time heals all wounds. But in a court where love is treason and trust is a weapon, time might just make the scars run deeper. |
