All Eivor Havard had known was duty to her parents, and their people. Then war came to the kingdom of Diwan, tearing her family apart, and turning her into a puppet queen trapped in a cage. Tortured and stripped of her magic, Eivor bided her time, waiting for vengeance.
What she did not expect was for her freedom to be delivered by the leader of the dullaghan, as well as the son of the ancient enemy of her people. United against the man who invaded Diwan, Eivor and her new allies know their time is limited before a fresh invasion is launched against them. One they cannot hope to defeat without finding a way to even the odds.
With the future of her kingdom at stake, Eivor is willing to do whatever it takes to save Diwan. Even if it means surrendering her heart to the two people she least expected to fall in love with, and allowing them to set her on a throne she was not prepared for.
