In The Shattered Shadows
Raena has known nothing but the cold, hard walls of the Erebrynne slave house, where her life was destined to be bought and sold by others, her worth defined by the price on her head. But when Avriel Adler, the dark and dangerous heir to the Autumnal Dominion, claims her as his own, it's not for affection-it's for a purpose. She's to be trained to kill the king, a man who rules with iron and terror. To conceal her true role, she must pose as Avriel's betrothed, a deception that binds her fate to his. Beneath the shadows of their dangerous game, something more dangerous stirs. Avriel's charm and whispered promises pull Raena into a web of forbidden emotions she can't ignore. She is drawn to him, despite the secrets and manipulation that lie between them.
