Description
Princess Rowena has spent her entire life forging her own path. The last thing she wants to do is be forced into a loveless marriage for the sake of the crown, and has successfully managed to thwart off several suitors in her efforts. When she is given the ultimatum of either marrying for a political alliance, or step down as heir to her throne, she makes the decision that at least as queen, she can still advocate and be the voice for her people and her kingdom. Whisked away into an unwanted destiny, tragedy quickly finds its way into her land as her world is turned upside down. King Alistair swings his sword with vengeance as he seeks to conquer those who have successfully taken everyone he's ever cared about from him. While his enemies proved unsuccessful in taking his crown, he has risen a kingdom from the spilled blood of both his people, and from those he has killed with his own hands in the process. In the wake of conquering one of his biggest enemies, he finds a princess just as ruthless as him, and who is willing to stop at nothing to save her people. When their paths collide, they must navigate a treacherous journey of power, betrayal, and unexpected alliances. As the fate of their kingdoms hang in the balance, Rowena and Alistair must decide whether to follow their destiny predestined in the stars, or risk losing their hearts and everything they know with it.
