Shattered Throne

He's been a pawn all his life-does he have a chance of being anything more?

Reeling from betrayal, Leo flees to Zuren with fractured trust and a rare poison coursing through his veins. Truth and deception plunge everything he believed into disarray. The only thing harder than owning up to his tainted legacy is finding the courage to fight for more than his own life. How can Leo lead his people when all he's inherited is a crown of lies seated upon a throne of death?

Nothing could have prepared Zandra for the storms she faces now. Their only hope of sanctuary lies with her brothers, but betrayal lurks in the shadows, even among her own family. When her duty to Zuren clashes with her loyalty to Leo, she must determine how far she is willing to go for a kingdom that's rejected her. 

A fallen prince, an outcast princess, a loyal bodyguard, and a rogue spy are all they have to face the looming conflict that threatens to claim their lives. The only chance against the Hyran Empire is to amend the bad blood between Daystra and Zuren-yet the cost of reconciliation may be the fatal blow to their survival. Leo and Zandra must confront the dark truths of the past together and fight, or else they will watch war ravage everything they hold dear.
