When the king of the Nords wishes to end the generations-old war with a marriage between his daughter and the Purdhan ruler's son, Vicomte François faces a problem: His son is only seven years old. Then His Majesty comes up with a clever solution... He betroths his illegitimate son and warlord, Ax, to the Nord King's daughter, and peace is ensured...except for one minor detail... Neither Ax nor Princess Astrid want to get married, especially to each other. Axel thinks his bride is a spoiled, pampered, and inconsiderate little chit. Astrid considers Axel a rude, crude, uncouth barbarian. She's determined their marriage will never be consummated and so far, her trusty dagger has kept the randy young warlord at bay. Hope of an heir is out of the question, unless some bilateral attitude adjustments are made. When all seems lost, there's a drunken feast, a storm and a shipwreck, and now two young people who despise each other are going to have to work together to survive...or else.

THE KING IS DEAD! HOW LONG WILL THE NEW KING SURVIVE? Invalid Crispin of Leonesse isn't expected to survive his coronation...then swordswoman Janel Redhu becomes his bodyguard.Coddled by the Queen Mother, Crispin is an odd combination of feeble body, rebellious spirit, and frightened child. In spite of that, he and his guard become friends. When Janel overhears what she believes is a conspiracy to seize the Throne, she carries her sovereign to safety in the neutral country of Sudelain.What follows is a tale of suffering and love as a boy transforms into manhood and a young woman helps him meet his destiny.
