Six years ago, Blair lost her best friend to war. Roan left as a boy with fire in his eyes, and returned as The Golden Knight, the kingdom’s fiercest warrior and the king’s most trusted blade. But when their paths cross again, the air between them ignites with everything left unspoken. She’s a princess, bound by duty and royal blood. He’s a knight, sworn to protect the very crown that forbids him from wanting her. Yet one look, one touch, and every law of the realm feels breakable. Roan has fought countless battles, but none as dangerous as the one that rages inside him now, he cannot control his body begging to claim her as his. And Blair, torn between loyalty and longing, knows the price of defiance could be her throne… or her heart. In a kingdom built on power, secrets, and sacrifice — their love is the one sin that could bring it all to ruin.
