The Reluctant Queen - Hardcover

Bound by fate. United by blood. Torn by desire.

Tressya never wanted to be queen, but destiny had other plans. Thrust onto the Tarragonan throne by the scheming Sistern order, Tressya finds her world unraveling. As enemies circle and secrets threaten to control her, an enthralling connection with Tamas, leader of the Razohan shapeshifters, promises both passion and peril.

Tamas is a man torn between duty and desire. Sworn to claim the Bone Throne, his searing bond with Tressya, forged in blood and shrouded in prophecy, makes him an adversary yet could be her ultimate undoing.

The Etherweave stirs, and whispers of the "twain bloodborn" echo throughout the realm. Powerful individuals, hidden in the shadows, believe they are the rightful heirs and seek to make their claim. Tressya and Tamas find themselves locked in a perilous race against time. Each must navigate ancient secrets and treacherous alliances to locate the Etherweave's hidden tomb, knowing that whoever frees and masters this mighty force first will command the fate of their world.

As they journey through dangerous forests, forgotten ruins, and across treacherous mountains, Tressya and Tamas encounter magical creatures, battle ancient curses, and confront their deepest fears. The line between ally and enemy blurs as they are forced to make heart-wrenching choices that test their resolve and challenge their loyalty.

In a realm where ascending the throne demands a sacrifice and love cuts deeper than any blade, who will reach the Etherweave first? Or will they both be devoured by the very magic they seek to control?

With every step closer to the Etherweave, the bond between Tressya and Tamas deepens, as does the danger that threatens to tear them apart. As prophecies unfold and the stakes rise, they must decide whether their love is strong enough to withstand the forces that seek to destroy them, or if their destiny will ultimately drive them apart.
