Blurb

Princess must overcome demon, princes, and other monsters.

Princess Alana was raised to rule a kingdom that survives by enduring the cold. When a deadly threat rises in the north, she refuses to remain behind palace walls. With Sir Simeon Volkov, the king’s most loyal knight, at her side, and a watchful handmaiden who sees more than she should, Alana steps beyond the safety of the crown and into a world that does not forgive weakness. What begins as a hunt becomes something far more dangerous. Ancient forces stir beneath the ice. Court politics tighten around them. And every choice Alana makes pulls her closer to a truth her kingdom was never meant to face. To protect her people, she will have to become more than a princess. She will have to survive what is coming.
