Woven by Fate

He is forced to become her sword and shield. She's chosen to bring peace, if it's not too late.

A bloody attack leaves tensions between their nations at an all-time high. Celeste survives at the unexpected mercy of Xavier -- the ruthless leader of the Underground and the enemy of her people. Xavier claims she's blessed by the gods and they have shared enemies, but she refuses to believe him. Guarded closely by Xavier, Celeste can't leave. Unable to sit idly by, she pulls the secrets of the Underground free and feeds them to her father. The only problem is the gods she didn't believe existed are alive and reaching out to her. Xavier is only ruthless when it comes to protecting his people, or her. She struggles to resist the forbidden pull toward him. The more secrets that come to light, the more she realizes the extent of the lies fed to her people. The gods chose her to build the bridge to peace, but doing so would mark her as a traitor. Xavier insists she's not a prisoner, but will he let her go for the sake of both their nations? Her life and the lives of those she's grown to love hang in the balance. With war on the horizon, Celeste must choose between her heart and her destiny.
