Sword & Shadow

The second book in an epic Regency-inspired fantasy series, perfect for fans of Game of Thrones and Outlander! When you’ve lost the ones you love, can you risk loving again . . . ? After losing her uncle, Evylin wonders if the gamble she took—marrying Colonel Deckard to gain a life of adventure—has cost her too much. Buried in sorrow, she throws herself into their quest to save Ephria and Wauld from the tyrant Night Mage, avoiding the one choice she fears most: If she lets herself love Deckard, what happens if she loses him too? Deckard fights to prove his love. Dedicated to the promise he made to Hewitt, Deckard is determined to secure Evylin’s happiness—no matter the cost. But serving a traitorous organization to restore a magic he once considered heretical has turned his world upside down. Faced with unsettling choices between his ethics and his wife, Deckard questions the man he’s become. With their new allies at their side, Evylin and Deckard journey into enemy territory to retrieve the next three Relics that will save their kingdom. Danger lurks in every shadow—hostile soldiers, Mages, and bounty hunters in constant pursuit. As Evylin works to understand the lost magic of the Warriors, Deckard faces the haunting of his own choices . . . and a burgeoning power lurking within his soul.
