A new queen. An ancient feud. A succession bought in blood.

The world changed in the blink of an eye. Once an estranged cousin to the king, Aria is now heir apparent to the South. With her nation still in the midst of an unjust war, torn by Byzantine politics and rampant treachery, the inheritance seems a curse.

Not least of all because peacemaking between the distant branches of the royal family means marriage: her marriage. Among the sycophants and assassins, politicians and spies, Aria knows who to trust: no one.

She doesn't trust her intended, Augustus. She doesn't trust his smart talking half-sister, Terese. But when the young woman saves her life, the queen's guard begins to slip.

Which is a problem. Because if she crosses the rest of the royal family, it won't just be a war with the North she'll have to contend with; it'll be civil war.
