 She was forged for battle, but love would be her greatest surrender. Born to lead a kingdom she never wanted, El would rather wield a sword than wear a crown. Fierce, restless, and unshaken by fear, she belongs to the battlefield—until a secret changes everything. Before setting sail on a raid, El discovers a hidden journal belonging to Primrose—the mother she never knew. Confronted, Leigh finally comes clean, unraveling the truth El was never meant to hear. Reeling from betrayal and searching for purpose, El runs toward war, desperate to escape the lies of home.But in the chaos of battle, an enemy man named Crusoe saves her life, binding their fates in ways neither expected. To keep her safe from those who would see her dead, his mother proposes an unthinkable alliance—marriage. Torn between rebellion and calling, vengeance and faith, El must face who she truly is—and the God her mother once clung to, even in the dark. In a world ruled by war and shadow, love and truth become the fiercest battles of all.
