In this faith-based novel, kingdoms are ravaged by plague. A new queen is petitioned by God to tackle the impossible. As default Queen of Ringard, Roselyn juggles her peoples' decimation, an advancing enemy army, and endless Highwardian assassins. Bound by God's laws and her physician's oath to preserve life, God petitions Roselyn to submit to Edric's demands and voluntarily forfeit her title, throne, and kingdom to extend peace to Kirian's belliferous king. Via their treaty, Roselyn must become Edric's handmaiden. What he doesn't know is that his version of cruelly keeping her as his trophy is Roselyn's salvation. As the 'Renegade princess of Ringard, ' Roselyn has barely escaped with her life for years, and the idea of finally becoming useless to her Northern enemies has her surging with joy over her new, lowly station. More importantly, the southern kingdom offers rest for Roselyn's soul as well as unexpected friendship with the tyrant and his mousy sister. Edric's cruel, late father and his schemes poison the heart of Kirian and sully Edric's reputation. It becomes clear to Roselyn that God has petitioned her to advocate for the new king, yet her trouble from Ringard has closely followed her. Despite unanticipated friendship with Edric and a hint of blooming affection, our allies discover that Overlord Amon's manipulation infiltrates further south than anyone knows and that Highward's leader is determined to possess Roselyn and Ringard at any cost.
