War is coming.
It has been almost a year since the Dragonbitten warned the king and queen of the coming invasion. Now, the Kadians sail for Calenor and the fate of the kingdom rests with two young women. Elana Montaire Valentine never imagined she would be queen, let alone queen of a country facing an invasion. There are no lessons to be found in the history books, she must find her own path beside Ennis. Together, they need to find a way to defeat this oncoming enemy while struggling to unite their divided country. Navigating court politics is almost as dangerous as war itself, especially when so many nobles still distrust the Dragonbitten.
Elian Wilding, no longer hunted, now serves the king and queen of Calenor as the Dragonbitten. Even with her strength and power from the black dragon, she misses her friendship with Kellan. The distance between them only grows as the impending war sends Elian on a hunt for answers and Kellan helps lead men to meet the invading army. Time is running out as the Kadians approach the shores of Calenor. Elian's search leaves her with more questions and if she wants to find the answers and make her way back to Kellan, she will have to confront her lingering fears about the dragon blood in her veins.
