King Ronan Dain is a legend. Having conquered and united the seven warring kingdoms, he now rules from the grand capital, both loved and feared as the man who ended centuries of bloodshed.
But peace is fragile, and his council pressures him to take a wife to secure his reign. Reluctantly, he agrees to host a grand ball, inviting noblewomen from across the realms.
Among the dazzling guests, one woman captures his attention instantly—Selene, a gorgeous beauty with emerald eyes that seem to pierce his soul. But Selene is no ordinary guest. She is an assassin, trained to kill the king who destroyed her homeland. Sent by a secret faction that seeks to destroy his empire, she has only one mission: earn his trust, get close enough, and Kill him.
But the closer she gets, the harder it becomes to carry out the kill. For the ruthless warlord she expected is not the monster she was taught hate. Her own heart betrays her.
Kill the king and avenge her people.
Or protect the man she was sent to destroy.
Either way, she might not make it out alive.
