To Burn a Kingdom

A young woman with powerful magic must choose between true love and true power in book two of this YA fantasy duology, perfect for fans of Heartless Hunter. A love to choose. A crown to claim. Against all odds, Virdei overcame neighboring kingdom Petruvia's invasion attempt. But Mira Kyler can't rejoice with everyone else. Her mother, Aja, was kidnapped, and Mira suspects she's being held hostage by Petruvian forces. Despite Kaidren's efforts to stop her, Mira sneaks into the Petruvian castle, disguised as a thief. She's certain her lie-detecting magic will help her find her mother. But for all her schemes, she never saw the ruthless Prince Raevin coming. Prince Raevin makes Mira an offer he's certain she won't be able to refuse: Pretend to be his betrothed. In exchange for her help defeating his siblings in the race for the Petruvian throne, Mira will rule alongside Prince Raevin as his true equal. At first, Prince Raevin is only a means to an end—finding Aja and returning home to be with Kaidren—but as Mira peels back the layers of the icy prince, she finds that they are more alike than not. With everything she's ever worked for at her fingertips, she must ask herself what she wants most: love, or power?
