Natasia is the eldest of Emperor Andreth’s progeny, and if not for her gender, the crown princess to the Four Realms as well. But as daughter—not son—she is reduced to marrying a man who her father can prime into a proper successor. When her life is almost stolen by an untrackable betrayer, and when enemies lie in every corner of the empire—from the rebels and their sympathizers in the West, to the subjugated ‘barbarians’ of the East, to the outlawed religious sect, the Cult of Culo—and with no one but his own blood to trust, perhaps Tasia is his best bet. But there has not been a female in the throne in living memory. And will she retire her spoiled manners and wild rule-breaking in return for the throne and the burdens that come with it? Joslyn of Terinto, the finest swordsman in the Imperial Army and now protector of the Empress-to-be, threatens Tasia’s freedom even more as she must teach her unwilling apprentice the art of self-defense.
