Eighteen-year-old Yakua Roca worries more about her marriage prospects than the emperor who flattens kingdoms on his march toward the border. But when stone giants attack her village, Yakua's ambitious plan to marry a priest turns against her and she finds herself a peace offering to a man with a reputation for cruelty.
Yakua must navigate a dangerous betrothal, accept her shameful past, and stave off the burn of forbidden desire. Or leave everyone she loves in the careless hands of the monster she has to marry.
