A lost queen.
A man on the run.
A woman with a deadly secret.
Who will save the Kingdom of Lavdia?

Fleeing the horrors he witnessed at the castle, Angelus, alone, injured and desperate, seeks refuge in the only place he knows to hide: Finn's village. There he is taken in and nursed back to health by a beautiful and troubled young apprentice, who he shares a connection with that neither of them truly understand. But as word of the manhunt for Angelus spreads, and long buried ghosts threaten to destroy him, Angelus must come to terms with his past, and reclaim his reason to fight. And to live.

Veronica has only ever wanted to hide. But when a mysterious man appears at her home in need of help, and inadvertently brings the enemy to her doorstep, her delicately constructed life is shattered to pieces. Harboring a secret that could mean her death if discovered, Veronica finds herself dragged into the heart of a conflict she wants nothing to do with, but soon she will discover that the lines have already been drawn, and she will be forced to choose a side before one chooses her.

With Artemis expanding his power across the kingdom, and leaving thousands of innocents caught in the crossfire, Angelus and Veronica go in search of their country's last hope: Queen Mayva, the Warrior Queen who has been missing for months and, for all they know, could be dead. The pair embark on a journey across their land to the Northern Mountains, the queen's last known location, and along the way discover the Magic hidden in their country, and the secrets hidden within themselves.

Action-packed and achingly emotional, the second book in the Royal Three Trilogy continues the epic tale of Lavdia, and those fighting to protect it.
