Edelweiss: Book One of The Marked Path

They name the mountain flower Edelweiss for its purity- but here, in a land stitched together by broken vows and forbidden covenants, even the toughest bloom can wither in shadow. Prince Ehren, marked by the blood curse his mother cast upon him at birth, believed breaking its hold would grant him peace. In this gritty and unapologetic look at the many faces of desire- from beautiful to horrific- Ehren returns to a realm torn by betrayal, where three claims vie for his soul: the idealistic yet petty Princess Stephanie; her tormented friend Heidi, whose wounds fuel her nightmares; and the enigmatic mercenary Capriclaire, whose dark touch awakens cravings no blade can quench. As loyalties stray, Ehren must choose which hearts to betray- and which oath will bind his soul forever.
