Shadow of Hope

As children, he saved her life. Now, he is the assassin

sent to kill her.

Years ago, Raine rescued Princess Kalista of Avalyn,

unknowingly sealing his own fate. To protect her, he became the Shadow—an

assassin bound to serve the ruthless Lord Mahan. Now, as Mahan’s deadly schemes

threaten Avalyn, Raine is ordered to kill the woman he’s loved since childhood.

Betrothed to Luke Ramsey since birth, Kalista always knew

her marriage would be one of duty. Yet every night, she dreams of the boy who

saved her—a boy she thought she’d never see again. When Raine reappears in her

life, she’s drawn to him despite the danger he represents. But her growing

feelings for Raine threaten not only her arranged marriage but also the fragile

stability of her kingdom.

As Avalyn faces war and betrayal, Kalista is torn between

her duty to her people and the desire of her heart. With assassins closing in

and love pulling her in two directions, can she save her kingdom without losing

herself—or the men she cares for most?

With a love triangle

rife with duty and longing, pick up this best-selling, award-winning

series and dive into a tale of passion, sacrifice, and courage in

the face of overwhelming darkness.
