The long war between Nordmar and Myrthana was over.

In the end, her kingdom had lost. She had expected that, even hoped for it.

What she hadn't expected was for her brother, the new King of Myrthana, to hand her over to the King of Nordmar, King Rhobart, as a war prize to save his own life.

King Rhobart was not a merciful man. He was cruel and heartless, just like the cold land he ruled.

When Ayla arrived in Nordmar, things were not as they seemed. King Rhobart, while visibly angry at her, was not the man she thought he was. When a new enemy threatened the peace, the king and Ayla went on an unexpected journey around Nordmar.

What will happen when two people who despise each other are forced to face their demons?
