A glorious kingdom guarded by divine Angels is in dire need of a suitable ruler. Left with no choice but to consider a matriarchy, the heavenly guardians choose the merciless warrior, Princess Vanya, as the ultimate blade to the highest Angel, Andreas. Crowned to be Angelia's true king, Vanya is later plagued with a grave dilemma: Give up the throne she always desired, or ask for help from her berserker Elrodian husband to save her bleeding kingdom.
Elrodia is a kingdom of fire and embers, built by the sweat and tears of war-goblins and brutal gremlins. It is destined to be ruled by the most ruthless barbarian of all: King James Roman, a heartless, untamed beast who longs for one thing and one thing only: power. The rugged Elrodian king is run down with a sickness; a love that overtakes his tyrant heart, demanding he sacrifice his own golden glory to be granted the impossible affections of his very own enchantress.
How could the two powerful warriors save a royal union that is cursed by the great Andreas himself?

I grew up safe, protected, adored, certain of the life that awaited me. A grand estate, a devoted father... a wedding to the perfect man.

I find myself trapped in a fortress in the mountains, under the gaze of a man whose heart did not hesitate to shatter mine years ago.... Whose hands promise protection... and claim. He doesn't ask for my trust, he takes it, drags me into a world of lies, bold betrayals, and secrets I wasn't prepared to see. And the truth? I can't tell if he's my salvation... or the most delicious kind of trap I've ever known. I am Genevieve. My life was safe, my choices clear. But now, nothing is as it seems.
