City of the Seven Tribes

​

Vakar is desperate to find a way to protect his people against the Sherai, a destructive enemy that threatens to kill every man, woman, and child within the Seven Tribes. He knows his small force of warriors better than any other leader. He knows they have heart, soul, and no chance of survival without aide from the Tawk tribe. But the Tawk’s crucial assistance comes at a hefty price. Vakar must break his vow to never marry and wed the leader’s half Vescha sister, Jayden.

 

For Jayden, marrying Vakar is an unholy bargain. The union jeopardizes the lives of every single one of her father’s people, but her mother’s Vescha blood courses through her veins, compelling her to fulfil a prophecy.  Vakar’s vow of celibacy is his only defense against the ghost of a father who labeled him a bastard.

 

For his people, he will take a bride he never wanted.

 

For her people, she will risk her heart.

 

For their world, they will risk everything.
