The Kaiser murdered Theodosia's mother the Fire Queen when Theo was only six. He took Theo's country and kept her prisoner crowning her Ash Princess--a pet to toy with and humiliate for ten long years. That era has ended. The Kaiser thought his prisoner weak and defenseless. He didn't realize that a sharp mind is the deadliest weapon. Theo no longer wears a crown of ashes. She has taken back her rightful title and a hostage--Prinz Soren. But her people remain enslaved under the Kaiser's rule and now she is thousands of miles away from them and her throne. To get them back she will need an army. Only securing an army means she must trust her aunt the dreaded pirate Dragonsbane. And according to Dragonsbane an army can only be produced if Theo takes a husband. Something an Astrean Queen has never done. Theo knows that freedom comes at a price but she is determined to find a way to save her country without losing herself.
