THE STARS CHOSE HER. THE KINGDOM WANTS HER DEAD.
Arden Icaros was never meant to matter, but the stars had other plans…
A disastrous magic inheritance ceremony marks her with a forbidden constellation. Now half the realm believes she is a harbinger of war.
Hunted by assassins and condemned by powerful noble houses, Arden’s only hope is the kingdom’s most feared man.
Bishop Marius.
Ruthless, terrifying, and fiercely loyal to the crown, he should kill her. Instead, he hides her.
But as war looms, Arden discovers Bishop is keeping secrets powerful enough to topple kingdoms—and an obsession is growing between them that could destroy them both.
