Fit before rating

Everything you need to know first. Then fall in.

One trope. Spice, tropes and warnings show how sure we are.

The second book in the Heir Duology returns to a crumbling Martial Empire at war against the Kegari horde. Crown prince Quil Farrar and Empress Helene struggle to hold their armies together while Quil searches for the fate of Sirsha, the woman he loves. Sirsha, meanwhile, is bound to an ancient evil called Div that covets her magical heart, and she seeks to free herself while protecting Quil. A third thread follows Cero, a former ally of the Kegari leader Aiz, now set against her as he confronts hidden truths and a dangerous lie. The novel weaves these perspectives into a story of legacy, rebellion, and loyalty.
