In a kingdom bound by duty and political alliances, Princess Seraphine is promised to a prince she does not love. Her heart longs for freedom... and soon, for someone forbidden.
Assigned to guard her is Sir Caelum-a quiet, loyal knight who never expected to fall for the woman he swore to protect. As stolen glances turn to secret meetings, and whispers in the dark turn to confessions of love, the two find themselves caught in a dangerous web of longing, betrayal, and war.
But courtly eyes are always watching. Especially those of Princess Amelie-Seraphine's sweet, perfect sister whose smile hides her jealousy... and whose heart secretly craves the same prince Seraphine refuses.
When kingdoms clash and war knocks at the gates, love may not be enough to save them.
And in the end... beneath the weeping willows, two hearts will break, and a kingdom will never forget.

Kastiel Ravaryn, the fiercest general in all of Solmaria, was a name whispered in fear on the battlefield. His victories were countless, his strategies unparalleled, and his loyalty to his kingdom unwavering. When the king offered a prize for his triumphs-not wealth, nor land, but a woman of his choice-the court expected him to claim a noble lady, perhaps even Princess Avaria herself. But Kastiel shocked them all by choosing Seraphine Kaelor-a humble healer, a commoner, and a woman whose kindness had unknowingly captured his heart. Seraphine, who had spent her life healing the wounded and tending to the sick, never imagined she would be thrust into the heart of a royal scandal. She had always known her place, far from the glittering world of nobles and kings, but Kastiel's unexpected choice shattered her understanding of her own worth. As she became the center of court gossip, Seraphine found herself caught between the love of a man who defied his station and the dangerous obsession of Princess Avaria, who would stop at nothing to claim Kastiel for herself. While Kastiel battles foreign invaders, he is also forced to fight against the web of lies, betrayal, and envy that threaten to tear his world apart. With Seraphine's life hanging in the balance and the kingdom's future uncertain, Kastiel must confront not only the enemies at his doorstep but the haunting truth that love, above all, may be the war that leaves him broken beyond repair. In a land where loyalty and betrayal intertwine, where every victory is shadowed by loss, Kastiel and Seraphine must navigate a perilous path, one where their hearts and their lives are the ultimate prize.Complete
