An assassin, an emperor, and his Chosen. Will their bonds survive intrigue, exile, and war...? Exiled by the emperor he loves, Hredeen Leesian chooses to travel to the once-peaceful kingdom of Bhantan to stop a brutal invasion. Armed with only a blade and his skills as an assassin, he means to stop Raine's cruel brothers from killing and looting their way across the kingdom.

Only love can break this captive's chains. Valon Argris has lived alone in the crude wasteland fortress for longer than he cares to remember. He watches from the tower for enemy ships or spies, his only goal to keep a hidden seaside colony of escaped slaves safe from the Empire of Rysar. The empire destroyed everything Valon loved and left him scarred and hunted. While he prefers to hide his chilling visage in the isolation of the fortress, he will allow nothing to endanger the runaway slaves who have made the cove their home.

He knows the runaway soldier is dangerous—if not to the people Valon protects, then certainly to the chains around Valon's heart.
