The rightful queen and her fire-breathing dragon must fight against corruption and overcome the betrayal of the man she loved in the searing conclusion to the Celtic-inspired fantasy romance duology that began with A Fate Forged in Fire.
Aemyra Daercathian is a queen on the run. Having failed to take Àird Lasair and been betrayed by her husband—whom she had grown to trust and was beginning to fall for during her time in captivity—Aemyra is forced to retreat with a raging desire for revenge. But before she can settle the score and fulfill a sacred promise to kill Fiorean, her forces must rest and replenish their strength.
No one can know the truth.
Although Aemyra has a fierce dragon and a large army of elemental wielders called Dùileach standing behind her, she has lost what’s most important—her fire magic. Haunted by her love for her enemy and unsure if she is Goddess-blessed anymore, Aemyra vows to do right by her people, even if that means she must make a new kind of alliance, one that could mean winning back her territory—at a cost to her heart.
From the ashes, Aemyra must emerge a new kind of queen, but will she be the dawn for her people or the fire that burns everything to the ground?
