How do you save a world that doesn’t want saving? As a priestess in a remote temple, Maegwin thought herself safe from the civil war engulfing Amaury. She was wrong. When soldiers destroy her temple and she kills the perpetrators in a fit of rage, she is sentenced to death. But when she’s given a last-minute reprieve from the gallows by an enigmatic stranger, she realizes her goddess has given her a second chance. But not to atone for her crimes. To take revenge. Rovann is the King’s Mage. Champion. Leader. The man people look to for succour. And he’s heartily sick of it. Plagued by doubts and full of questions, he hopes the woman he saves from a hanging might hold the key to ending this interminable war. But she is not what she seems and Rovann is not sure he can trust her. With conflicting loyalties and clashing agendas, Maegwin and Rovann find themselves as unlikely allies. But in a battle where failure means annihilation of all they hold dear, can they find a way to trust each other before it’s too late?
