Honor. Trust. Exile. Will love overcome the lies?Raised in lies and isolation, denied all knowledge of his family, Aidan awakens one day to find the manor in a state of excitement. Two foreign generals have come for him. They claim he is their long lost prince, the sole survivor of a rebellion that killed the royal family and usurped the throne of Ceratas. And he, Aidan Telan Ameris, is being escorted home to be crowned king. Naive and submissive he might be, but stupid Aidan is not. Political machinations are something he has never been exposed to, but everything about his upbringing suddenly makes sense. The long hours studying books of history, the training with pistols and swords. He'd been groomed for this moment since his earliest memories. But he knows without a doubt that he's no prince. He's nothing but a pawn in a game he can't possibly understand. When their carriage is attacked en route to Ceratas, Aiden is taken prisoner by the leader of the rebel forces.

And soon the heat between them grows to something neither can ignore, something that burns much hotter than warfare. But nothing is simple in the struggle for Ceratas. There are those who wish to use Aidan to destroy both Torin and his country. When both of them are captured, used against each other to break their wills, Aidan and Torin must find the strength to trust each other in a way neither finds easy, if they're to save each other-and their country...
