She Chose Armor

Zenara Church, a retired War Lady, honors her father's dying wish to abandon battle. She weds Lucian Logan as her family's son-in-law, fostering him to become Martial Laureate—only to face betrayal when he takes a rival wife. After they scheme to seize her legacy and life, she re-dons her silver armor to reclaim her honor and defend the realm. Who says a true warrior ever truly retires?
