The Queen’s Resistance

Brienna, now a mistress of knowledge, is settling into her role as the daughter of Davin MacQuinn, the disgraced lord who returned to Maevana to reclaim his House. But as the new queen’s confidant, Brienna must balance serving her father’s House with serving her country. And then there’s Aodhan Morgane. He’s adjusting to the stark contrast between his pre-rebellion life in Valenia as Cartier Evariste and his current one as lord of a fallen House. And when he discovers a mysterious boy who captures his heart as much as Brienna’s, he begins to wonder—what if he doesn’t have to raise him or his House alone?

But for now, Brienna and Cartier must put their feelings aside. For resistance is rumbling, and the old regime’s supporters are looking for a weakness in the rebel forces. And what makes one more vulnerable than love?
