When the ruthless Lord Tiwakan seizes the kingdom of Nauk, Princess Liene Arsac faces an impossible choice: marry her captor or watch her homeland crumble. But Lord Tiwakan isn’t just after power; he desires Liene, and his devotion stirs a mix of fear and undeniable attraction within her. With her former betrothed, Lafitte, still missing, Liene must decide whether to trust Tiwakan's promises or hold out hope for a rescue. As dangerous secrets come to light, Liene’s decision could change the fate of Nauk—and her own heart—forever.
