The Shaman's Wife (Wings of Valenia Book Three)

It’ s spring in Valenia, and young Queen Kiar is preparing for her marriage to the brave and loyal Tuan of the swanfolk. They have survived much together— rival suitors from neighboring kingdoms, the dark magic threat that almost destroyed the royal family, and the murderous invasion of the mysterious bogwalkers­ — and now, they look forward to starting life together in peace. But trouble arrives when the flock returns from the winter grounds. While crossing grasslander country, a family member is slain by an enchanted arrow. Kiar must consider how to respond and whether to involve her sister Adana, now the Swan Queen. The memory of their sister Orla’ s betrayal and actions still stings for both. Before Kiar can take action, news of a grasslander raid arrives, and Valena is suddenly at war. In defense of her family and her country, Kiar rallies Valenia’ s forces to fight. Past allies and enemies enter the fray, and it’ s not always clear whom she can trust. As violence rages and the future of the kingdom hangs in the balance, cracks appear in her bond with Tuan, and a heartbroken Kiar begins to wonder whether they can have a future together after all.
