Daega d’Gayeh is the oldest daughter of the leaders of the Istarii Drakan horde. All her life, she’s trained for war, but in the end, her fate is peace. She’s to marry the crown prince of her people’s longtime enemy, which will cement the treaty that finally ends the bloody war that’s plagued their land for generations.
Lenlethael Felthenethor is a horrible disappointment, but as the only son of the Elf King Haedelon, it is his duty to marry the barbarian princess. There’s no fate worse than being shackled to one of the huge, monstrous brutes his people have been fighting for decades. But when he meets his bride he begins to realize that the reality of the Istarii Drakan people is very different from the tales he’s been told about them.
It’s not long before Daega and Len are thick as thieves, determined to see their marriage work and lift their people out of the mire of war. But there’s someone out there who wants them to fail, and they’ll need to be careful and clever to keep the peace…and their lives.
