    Summary

    A fragile crown. A sharper guard. Two burned men who learn that endurance looks a lot like love.

    When an unready boy-king inherits a realm on the brink, his appointed marshal, Andy Gallagher is a blunt, stubborn force whose loyalty is bought with suspicion. Forced into one another’s orbit by court intrigue, midnight raids, and a secret neither can afford to lose, they trade barbs until the armor between them cracks. The thaw is messy, violent, and heartbreaking, but it leads to something steady and whole.
