Prince Julian never expected to rule, but when he's accused of treason and forced to flee the only home he's ever known, everything he once believed begins to fall apart.
At his side is Bellinor Blackwood: brooding, steadfast, and the one man who's always been more than just a friend. Their bond has survived childhood, war, and duty, but now, in exile, it's harder than ever to pretend it's only loyalty that ties them together.
As the realm fractures and the Kings Guard turns on itself, Julian and Bellinor must outwit the conspirators hunting them and survive long enough to expose the truth. But in a kingdom built on oaths and secrets, it's not just betrayal they'll have to face - it's everything they've never said out loud.
