Lorcan
The only thing I remember from before the war is that Zosia hated me on sight – and the feeling was mutual. Keeping her alive was the price I had to pay to restore honor to my father’s name.

Yet the harder I fight to win this war, the more she haunts me.
I once promised the princess that as long as I remained alive, I would come for her.
But I broke that vow…and now it might be too late.

Zosia
I’m free after surviving a nightmare. But the country I’m meant to lead lies in ruins, and my dreams of a life with Lorcan, which sustained me through my captivity, are dead.

There was only ever one path for me: an arranged marriage.
This time, I’m the one to strike the bargain.

After weeks of silence, Lorcan admits he remembers me, and I throw caution to the wind. We deserve a chance at happiness.

It’s only when I’ve walked away from the best chance of rebuilding my country that I discover the true depth of his betrayal…
