The Winter Crown

“Princess of the sunlit south, you are sent north as a peace offering — a bride for Aleksander, the Winter King of Norvaheim, whose kingdom of ice and aurora has never known warmth. The marriage contract was signed before you were consulted, the journey nearly killed you, and the man who meets you at the glacier throne is as cold and unyielding as the land he commands. But political alliances are fragile things, and as enemies mass at the borders and the court conspires in whispers, something far more dangerous than war begins to thaw between you — a love that neither crown, nor ice, nor the ghosts of murdered brides can contain.”
