Allegiance: The Legacy Trilogy, Book 2

"He couldn't help his past any more than he could help the way those intense, deep blue eyes pierced me and held me captive." An 18-year-old queen is in love with the enemy as their countries pass the point of no return….

Bound to a man she cannot love, Queen Alera of Hytanica must forget Narian, the young man who holds her heart. For Narian is destined to conquer Hytanica at the behest of his master, the powerful magic-user known as the Overlord. Alera doesn't truly believe Narian will fight against Hytanica—until Cokyrian troops attack with Narian commanding the charge.

Faced with the greatest betrayal a heart can know, Alera must set aside personal feelings and lead her kingdom through its darkest time. And when all hope, will, and courage seem lost, she must find strength and remember that even the blackest night must have a dawn.
