In a kingdom where winter never forgives, Princess Elena Veyr has grown used to being seen as weak.
Because of her fragile health, she has spent most of her life away from battlefields and political gatherings - surrounded by books, music, and quiet evenings inside her family's ancient fortress. While her brothers prepare for war and her sister proves her strength with a sword, Elena believes her fate is simple: to marry Prince Kylen of the northern kingdom and secure peace between their lands.
She believes she knows him.
She believes this marriage could be the beginning of a peaceful life.
But on the night her family leaves her alone in the fortress, the walls meant to protect her become her prison.
Mysterious warriors from the far north break through her window and abduct her, revealing a secret that changes everything - Elena is not merely the daughter of a ruler.
She is the key to an ancient power that kingdoms would destroy each other to possess.
Taken to a land of ice and endless darkness, she becomes the prisoner of a man she should hate. Aren - the leader of the northern warriors - is cold, dangerous, and merciless. He claims he is saving her, but refuses to tell her what he is saving her from.
As Elena tries to discover whether he is her enemy or the only person telling her the truth, she learns that the palace she was promised to has its own secrets.
Prince Kylen is not only her future husband.
Her family is not only protecting her.
And the war in the north was never about territory.
It began because of her.
Between frozen castles, ancient curses, and dangerous alliances, Elena must decide whether she will remain the girl everyone wants to protect...
or become the woman everyone fears.
"The Bride of the Frozen North" is a story about a girl who spent her entire life believing weakness was her destiny - until the world forces her to discover how dangerous true strength can be.
