Publisher's Synopsis
Kate fought for her place as a healer in the war's front lines. Serving her homeland has been her goal since her magical gifts earned her a coveted apprenticeship with the kingdom's greatest healer. She believes she's prepared. But nothing's simple when defending a besieged capital city - or her heart. She loves the prince, who means to protect her even though his duties as a knight keep him on the battlements, fighting the enemy's monstrous army. Kate's husband is the one who checks on her, lingers over dinner, and slowly but surely charms her. She's all too aware that her beloved prince threatened to kill him if he touches her. As the enemy thunders against the city walls, the kingdom needs more from Kate than just her healing magic. All disciples must put aside their tangled feelings and stand in the homeland's defense. Kate believed she's ready for a war. She isn't.
