The Scars We Wear As Gold

War has claimed the kingdom of Tyrria for a decade now. At twenty-six, princess Evelyn Vom Vogel hasn't seen the front lines, but war touches even the seaside cliffs of Castle Erren.  As conflict escalates on the Western front, securities increase at the castle, and Evelyn suddenly finds herself under the personal guard of her fondest childhood friend: Fenriss Hawke, now a captain of the Royal Guard. After eight years apart, the two women are thrust together by orders of the Queen, surrounded by the constant breath of war. As tensions press in from the rival kingdom of Atherrus, Evelyn and Hawke must find their footing atop new duties and realizations that have waited years to surface. Through political intrigue, new traumas, and a romantic tension that spans nearly decades, Evelyn and Hawke discover much more than just what they'll do to chase the truth.  Updated weekly, happy reading!
