The Thrones of Frost and Storm

A crown denied. A kingdom divided. And a queen who refuses to surrender her birthright. Frost has lost its king and its prince. Before their bodies are even laid to rest, the kingdom is already tearing itself apart. Vaela is the lawful heir to the Frost Crown-but law means little when her cousin Corven, commander of the northern forces, controls soldiers, fortresses, and nobles willing to place military power above succession. As rival banners rise across the frozen capital, Vaela must fight not only for her throne, but for the right to rule without surrendering herself to the men who believe a woman should carry a crown only if they control the hand beneath it.Declared a threat to her own people and forced beyond Frost's borders, Vaela must build an alliance strong enough to reclaim her crown without allowing another kingdom to claim Frost in return. Her only path forward may lead through Storm-and through Rhydan, the dangerous crown prince to whom she has been bound by an old political betrothal.But the struggle for Frost is not divided into simple loyalties.As dragons gather above a frozen capital and rival armies close around its walls, Vaela must prove that she is more than the last surviving heir. To win, she will need to become the ruler Frost needs-without sacrificing the laws, the people, or the kingdom she is fighting to save.The final installment of an epic fantasy trilogy filled with dragon riders, contested crowns, political intrigue, divided loyalties, slow-burning romance, and a war in which victory may demand the highest price of all.
