The Dagger in the Princess's Gown

Vesper Vale, once the sharpest blade of Prince Lucian Martel, was betrayed and killed by him the day he became Crown Prince. But she awakens as Thea Hale, a frail princess of the rival Ardian Empire. Though she appears delicate, she hides deadly skills and a thirst for revenge. To strike back, she lures the arrogant Regent Kian Pierce into her web. As enemies close in, their perilous alliance ignites forbidden feelings—and together, they rise against all who stand in their way.
