He ordered a bride … but they sent him a spy.

When Cailean, the High King’s brutal chief-enforcer, reluctantly orders the perfect wife, the enemy murders her and sends Bree, a ruthless Shee assassin, in her place.

Her mission: marry, deceive, and kill him.

Neither wants this marriage. He’s harsh; she’s cunning. And yet as war looms, an unexpected connection forms between them.

But can a bond built on deception ever end in anything other than tragedy?

Welcome to the Kingdom of Albia, where warrior-druids and fae collide with Celtic and Pict myth in a dark and lush Romantasy duology about betrayal, sacrifice, divided loyalties … and deadly secrets.

*Please note: This is Book One in a duology and will end on a cliffhanger. Readers are encouraged to read the list of triggers on the author's website.*
