Lara has only one thought for her husband on their wedding day: I will bring your kingdom to its knees. Trained from childhood to be a lethal spy, she knows that the Bridge Kingdom represents both legendary evil and promise. It controls all trade and travel between lands, enriching its ruler and depriving his enemies, including Lara's homeland.

When sent as a bride to fulfill a treaty of peace, Lara is prepared to do whatever it takes to fracture the defenses of the impenetrable Bridge Kingdom. But as she infiltrates her new home and comes to know her new husband, Aren, she begins to question where the true evil resides. She sees a kingdom fighting for survival and in Aren, a man fiercely protective of his people. As her mission drives her to deeper understanding, Lara finds the attraction between her and Aren impossible to ignore.

Her goal nearly within reach, Lara must decide her own fate: Will she be the destroyer of a king or the savior of her people? The Bridge Kingdom is a tale of seduction, war, and the fierce passion that comes with the struggle for power.
