It's been 99 years since Yellowstone park erupted, causing a mass extinction and plunging the world into an ice age. Survivors are living in a structure dubbed the Greenhouse. They believe they're the only survivors, until a message appears on the outside of the glass. Jack Paul lives in a land of ice and snow, and Ruby Hammond lives in a lush, tropical world where the sun always shines. Even though they're from such different world, their fates are so intertwined that they are destined to meet.

Darkness is creeping in from the edges of the empire. A threat that has been all but lost to history is rising again. Cassia Auralius is the first female Heir of the Empire of Metus to not abdicate her right to the throne. Behind her is a line of warrior-kings and sacred laws. Before her is an uncertain future painted in blood. Opposed by her father and challenged by her brothers, Cassia must first prove herself worthy of the throne gifted by the gods. Ancient trials--trials she must not fail--will test her strength, both of her mind and her heart. The first trial--three long travel years cut off from her family and her own nobility--will soon begin. If Cassia can survive, she will be one step closer to her throne. A throne that will soon be under a threat she could never have imagined. Cassia will need allies, both common and strange to defeat this threat. If she fails in this, she will lose not only her throne, but her empire. Amazing cover by @StormRidden Copyright © 2019
