What happens when a reluctant spy discovers his greatest mission is protecting the woman who stole his heart?
Cole Tanniyn thought his days of danger were over when he traded his sword for a lute. But when the king sends him north as an undercover minstrel to investigate mysterious disappearances from the infamous Ice Island prison, Cole's carefully ordered world changes-especially when Mistel Wepp, the fiery-haired songstress he's falling for, secretly follows him into mortal peril.
She was supposed to stay safe. He was supposed to stay focused. Neither of them expected to fall this hard.
Posing as traveling performers with Kurtz, a gruff former prisoner seeking justice, Cole and Mistel must navigate dangerous taverns thick with secrets while their fake cousin relationship becomes increasingly difficult-especially when every shared glance and gentle touch threatens to reveal their true feelings. But when Cole's personal quest to visit his imprisoned uncle becomes entangled with a deadly conspiracy, and Mistel's bold curiosity lands her in the hands of human traffickers, everything changes.
Now Cole must choose: the mission that could free an innocent man... or the woman he loves.
As a web of corruption reaches the highest levels of power, and villains from Cole's traumatic past close in, he faces an impossible choice. With Mistel's life in danger and dark family secrets threatening to surface, Cole must find the courage to fight for love-even if it means defying orders and confronting the demons of his past.
Perfect for fans of the sweet romance and swashbuckling adventure, this story weaves together tender love, heart-pounding action, and the kind of connection that transforms two hearts.
Because sometimes the greatest adventure is finding someone worth everything...
