About this ebook
The first in a high fantasy romance series full of “military battles . . . political intrigue . . . and star-crossed love, set against a richly detailed land of warring kingdoms and hidden magic” (Library Journal).
Destiny tangles a young king, his new bride, and his lifelong champion in an age-old triangle of love and betrayal.
Akeela, King of Liiria, was a young and idealistic scholar determined to bring peace to his kingdom—a land that had been plagued by war with the neighboring kingdom of Reec for decades. At 14, he was rescued by Lukien, the Bronze Knight of Lirria, forming a bond of loyalty stronger than blood. But no two souls could be more different.
To seal the peace with their enemy, King Karis of Reec bestows upon Akeela the hand of his charming, beautiful, and accomplished daughter. But Cassandra hides a terrible secret: she is experiencing the first symptoms of a disease which could threaten her life—and cause unimaginable strife for all who love her.
For Akeela and Lukien, the quest for Cassandra’s salvation will overwhelm every bond of loyalty, every point of honor, every dream of peace. For only the magical amulets known as the Eyes of God can halt the progress of Cassandra’s illness—the same Eyes of God that can tear their world apart and redefine the very nature of their reality . . .
