Description

When I fled from the rotting kingdom of Mador, there was only one thought on my mind—revenge.

For too long, the king, my brother, has kept me underneath his iron rule, and I'm hellbent on getting justice for the years I've spent as his captive. But the outside world is on the brink of a complete upheaval.

The world's provinces are colliding in the Imperial Trials—offering men a chance to compete for their mate... and the crown.

If there's any hope for my plans, I'll need to put myself right in the middle of it.

My greatest threats? Four ruthless heirs, each with a hidden agenda of their own. Not that it matters.

I'll enjoy being their ruin.

Blade of Two Faces: May the most cunning and ruthless candidate win—or die trying.
