He was never just her best friend.
And she was never just another Jedi.
When war ignites, and desire slips past the cracks of duty,
what burns brighter-loyalty...
or the spark they swore to bury?
Shadows are creeping. Lines are blurring.
And not everyone will survive what's coming...
STAR WARS
Book I of Shadows of Fate Trilogy
Episode II: Attack of the Clones
Padawan Aydia Whitelighter stands at the edge of everything she's ever known-her loyalty to the Jedi, her unspoken bond with Anakin Skywalker, and the rules that were never meant to hold people like them. Quick-tongued and relentless, Aydia has been Anakin's shadow through their trials and chaos for years. But when a protection detail to Naboo unearths feelings long buried, the balance between duty and temptation begins to fracture.
As assassins close in, secrets ignite, and Count Dooku draws the galaxy into darkness, Aydia finds herself not only protecting the Senator-but the boy she once knew, now a man torn between love, fury, and destiny. Their connection deepens in the heat of survival, but war doesn't wait for hearts to make sense of themselves.
And when everything falls apart on Geonosis, to the greater wars that threaten to plunge the galaxy into peril, Aydia is left with one truth: sometimes the greatest threat isn't the enemy you fight-it's the choice you can't undo.
In the shadows of war, fate doesn't wait.
It chooses.
