The Bridge Kingdom

The iconic Bridge Kingdom series begins: a sweeping, sizzling fantasy romance filled with political intrigue and passionate love, from the New York Times bestselling author of A Fate Inked in Blood. A warrior princess trained in isolation, Lara is driven by two certainties. The first is that King Aren of the Bridge Kingdom is her enemy. And the second is that she´ll be the one to bring him to his knees. The only route through a storm-ravaged world, the Bridge Kingdom of Ithicana enriches itself and deprives its rivals, including Lara´s homeland. So when she´s sent there as a bride under the guise of peace, Lara is prepared to do whatever it takes to fracture its impenetrable defenses-and the defenses of its king. Yet as she infiltrates her new home and gains a deeper understanding of the war to possess the bridge, Lara begins to question whether she´s the hero or the villain. As her feelings for her husband transform from frosty hostility to fierce passion, Lara must choose which kingdom she´ll save . . . and which she´ll destroy. Includes two bonus chapters, "The Wedding" from Ahnna´s point of view and "The Capture" from Jor´s point of view
