Part of Lyonesse
First published 2024
Lyonesse is not like other places, and Iseult knows it. She arrives at this strange, insular world carrying a single assignment: seduce Mark Trevena, her new husband and one of the most powerful men alive. She has the training for it. She has the faith for it. She is the heiress to a transatlantic fortune, shaped from birth into the perfect match, and she serves a church that does not forgive failure. What she cannot afford is Tristan Thomas. Green-eyed, soldier-scarred, emotionally broken Tristan, who is Mark's bodyguard and the man who once kissed her in the salt spray of the sea and walked off with her heart. Now all three of them occupy the same dangerous space, and the boundaries between jealousy, desire, and suspicion dissolve fast. Mark is playing a game with rules Iseult does not fully understand, and the honeysuckle-hilted knife he once gave her hints at how deep his secrets run. Her church has its own agenda. Tristan is a wound she keeps reopening. And the thing pulling at all three of them is darker than any vow or any longing she has named so far. The second book in the Lyonesse Trilogy.
