by Hannah Currie (Author)
Firstborn of King Lior and heir to the throne of Raedonleith, Lady Rose has always known what was expected of her-marry a prince, bear a child, continue the royal line. None of that involved confirmation weeks before her wedding that she's barren. Nor her betrothed deserting her at the news. Through years of pain, bleeding and loss, her faith has kept her strong but this last blow strikes deep into her spirit. Rose knew she was broken. Now the rest of Raedonleith will too.
More comfortable amid books than battles, Prince Nicholas of Belairisia is as surprised as anyone when he claims Lady Rose's hand for himself upon first meeting. In front of every noble in Raedonleith. But neither does he regret it. Though it's impulsive and out of character for the studious prince, there's something in Rose's fragile beauty that captivates Nicholas. She's the treasure he's searched his whole life to find. Armed with patience and hope, Nicholas determines to wait as long as it takes to prove his devotion.
But when an attempt on Rose's life forces King Lior's hand, the two are thrust into a marriage neither of them are prepared for, and a journey through enemy territory which may end the relationship before it's barely begun.
