A princess trained to be silent. A warrior who refuses to be tamed. A marriage neither of them wanted.  

Haelyn has spent her life hiding-her sharp tongue, her defiance, and the blade she wields in secret. But when she's forced to wed Cato, a reckless noble with a dangerous smile, she finds herself trapped in a game of power, betrayal, and forbidden attraction.  

He was never meant to be her ally.  
She was never meant to fall for him.  

But when whispers of treason threaten the throne, Haelyn must decide: trust the man who swore to protect her... or the one who swore he never stopped loving her.  

And when the past comes for her, stealing the memories of the man she once knew, only one question remains-can you love someone you've forgotten?
