A shattered princess is a vengeful princess.

On the shores of Madra, rebellion has won. Her family dead or missing, Helena seeks help from the kingdom across the sea. Bela. She knows it from stories of magic and war but now finds herself at the mercy of the intimidating Basile queen. Etta is everything Helena wishes she could have been for her family and everything she hopes to be still. Convincing the foreign warrior queen to let her stay is easy. Convincing her to train a princess she barely knows is something else entirely.

When shocking news comes out of Gaule, Helena realizes the fight for Madra hasn't ended. It has only just begun.

Dell Tenyson left everything behind.

When the crown fell, he found himself on the unlikely side of those trying to save it. And they'd failed. Now, he follows Helena across the sea to help her regain what she lost. Not the crown. Her family.

But when all she wants is vengeance, will he be enough to remind her she still has a reason to live for something more?
