Book Description
Love demands a vow. War demands a sword. You cannot give your heart to both.
The crusaders have returned home, but the war is far from over. Kovdor stands on the brink as the Nordsmen gather strength in the shadows. Bound to help a distant kinsman he scarcely knows, Godfrey is called away from the lands that need him most. Duty pulls him in one direction. His heart pulls him in another. And with his marriage to Madeline fast approaching, both must confront a truth neither wishes to admit — they are not ready for the vows that bind more than hands.
Madeline’s magic, once a great strength, begins to falter at the worst possible moment. Desperate for answers, she turns to an unlikely ally: Fravash the Bright. But in the Nordslands, light can conceal as much as darkness — and trust may prove the deadliest spell of all.
As whispers of the undead rise, Walaric sets out to uncover the truth of this growing menace before it consumes them all. In a land where faith is tested, loyalty fractures, and love demands its price, Godfrey, Madeline, and Walaric must choose their paths carefully. Because in the Nordslands, every vow carries a sacrifice.
