Game of Thrones: Marked by Sun and Snow

Lyarra Snow, bastard daughter of Winterfell, has never believed in songs. Songs are for trueborn girls with pretty names and, has never believed golden futures. Bastards learn sharper lessons: where to sit, when to be silent, and how much love they are allowed to keep.

Then, on the night of her first blood, a soulmark burns itself onto her skin.

Its match belongs to Oberyn Martell.

Prince. Warrior. Father. Lover. Viper.

A man feared across Westeros, bound by fate to a Northern girl he has never met.

To the Faith, their mark is sacred.
To Dorne, it is destiny.
To the great Houses, it is opportunity.
To Lyarra, it feels like a door closing behind her.

Sent toward a future written by Gods and men, Lyarra must step into a world where every smile hides a blade and every marriage is a battlefield. The South expects a shy bastard girl, grateful for a prince's name.

They do not expect a wolf.

And Oberyn Martell, who has spent years chasing vengeance, may soon learn that the Gods have not given him a bride to tame.

They have given him someone just as dangerous to lose.
