\"\"What happens when you stop fighting an endless war and start asking why?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s not easy being the junior wife. Mia\u2019s only dream is to catch the eye of the dashing lead husband, and her sister\u2019s unexpected death gives her the chance at last. But was it just a tragic accident? Mia\u2019s not sure, but if she asks enough questions, maybe she\u2019ll find out. Or maybe she\u2019ll uncover too many secrets, and suffer a terrible punishment.<\/em><\/p>\n

It\u2019s not easy being the junior husband. For years, Hurst has longed to test his sword against the barbarians in the wilderness outside his orderly world, longed to take the lead, longed for Mia. He\u2019s bided his time, seething with resentment, so when his chance comes, he\u2019ll fight to the death for her, even if it tears the marriage apart.<\/em><\/p>\n

But there\u2019s far more at stake than one marriage. When Mia\u2019s taken from him, Hurst will risk everything to save her, even if it means taking up his sword against the barbarians, his own people, and the gods themselves. And that\u2019s when they discover what their world is really like, and who they\u2019re really fighting.<\/em><\/p>\n

Yet there\u2019s one secret they don\u2019t expect to uncover: because everyone knows there\u2019s no such thing as magic, right?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
