Amberly Now Available!
In a world that might have been…
Snatched by coldblooded enemies as a declaration of war, Eleanor Williamston finds herself caught in a deadly snare—miles from home and lost in the wilderness.
Her heart is drawn to the handsome guardsman who rescues her, but then is torn when he challenges her political ideals. Ellie clings to her faith in God to guide her choice between pursuing love for herself or liberty from the shackles of monarchy for her nation. But she doesn’t know Captain Marsten is keeping something from her—a revelation which will make her decision even more difficult.
Or that there’s another woman on his mind.
Marsten longs for a God-fearing wife, but cannot marry the lady he desires. The sassy young schoolteacher he rescues catches his eye, yet he fears she’ll turn out to be like beautiful women who’ve broken his trust in the past. Even if Eleanor proves trustworthy, he’s tied to the very royal palace from which she desires freedom for their nation.
Journey with them through the spectacular but treacherous Aspian Mountains while they evade enemy pursuit and wrestle through the challenges of wilderness and budding love, only to run headlong into Ellie’s anti-royalist family—and a whole new onslaught of foes.
