   Summary

   Gwayne Hightower has spent his life refusing to be reduced to his designation. Handsome, stubborn, an accomplished rider and fighter, he is a male omega who has no interest in becoming anyone’s soft, obedient spouse — least of all his arrogant, competitive cousin Ormund.

   When their families arrange a marriage and young Prince Daeron is sent to Oldtown as Ormund’s ward, Gwayne agrees for one reason only: the boy. He will stay for Daeron. He will endure the claim. He will not, however, pretend to want the rest.

   What follows is a slow, quiet undoing.
