Sword of Desire

Ackley has three goals--kill the traitorous king, put Owen on the throne, and reunite with Harley. Ackley's tasks should be simple since he's trained his entire life for this. However, with so many Marsden soldiers depending on him to make it home alive, his obligations weigh him down. Now that the woman he loves is in the hands of his enemy, the temptation to drop everything and rescue her is pitted against trusting--and hoping--that Harley is exactly the woman he thinks she is. Harley finds herself kidnapped and in the clutches of her abusive husband--a man she never thought she'd see again. Embedded with the enemy, she strives to make the most of this unique opportunity, but she has the growing suspicion her husband might already be two steps ahead of her. When survival clashes with what she desires most, sacrifices must be made. In this stunning conclusion, lies are spun, hearts are guarded, and allies are found in the most unlikely places.
